Spider Flower (Cleome hassleriana)

Spider Flower adds airy height and a fireworks-like bloom show that keeps borders feeling light, not bulky, from early summer until frost. The flowers hover on tall stems with long, threadlike stamens, giving the plant a unique texture that looks great behind fuller perennials and annuals. It also attracts plenty of garden activity, including bees and butterflies, which makes the whole bed feel more alive. If you want fast, warm-season color with a see-through habit that still reads from a distance, this plant is a strong choice.

Distinctive Features

This fast-growing annual forms an upright, lightly branching plant with palmate green leaves and showy flower clusters in white, pink, rose, or purple tones. Bloom typically runs from early summer through frost, with flowers opening along an ever-lengthening terminal cluster as the season progresses. Slender seed pods form below the blooms and can lead to self-seeding if left in place, and some forms may have small spines along the stems. Mature size is commonly about 3 to 6 feet tall and 1 to 2 feet wide, depending on variety and growing conditions.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun to part shade, with the best flowering and strongest habit in full sun.
  • Soil: Well-drained soil, and it performs best in amended garden soil that is not waterlogged.
  • Water: Medium, water to establish, then provide steady moisture for best growth while tolerating some dryness once established.
  • Zones: USDA Zones 10 to 11 as a short-lived perennial, grown as an annual elsewhere.
  • Notable Traits: Attracts pollinators and hummingbirds, may self-seed, and older types may have spiny stems.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use a bold drift as a focal point so the tall stems and spider-like blooms create a dramatic summer veil of color.
  • Back of Border: Plant behind shorter flowers to add height and an airy backdrop without blocking the view.
  • Seasonal Screening: Use in a row for quick warm-season privacy and soft visual separation.
  • Cottage Gardens: Mix with other upright bloomers for a relaxed, classic garden look with constant movement.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Support: Provide light staking in windy sites, since tall stems can lean as plants mature.
  • Watering: Water during extended drought to keep plants blooming and prevent stress-related leaf drop.
  • Seed Control: Remove seed pods if you want to limit self-seeding and keep the planting tidier.
  • Feeding: Avoid overfertilizing, since excessive fertility can lead to leggy growth and fewer flowers.

Why Choose Spider Flower?

  • Long Bloom Season: Flowers from early summer until frost for a steady warm-season display.
  • Airy Height: Typically reaches about 3 to 6 feet tall for vertical impact without heaviness.
  • Pollinator Friendly: Draws bees, butterflies, and often hummingbirds for a more active garden.
  • Fast Results: Grows quickly and fills space well, making it useful for seasonal color and screening.

Spider Flower looks best when planted in groups, letting the blooms read as a floating layer rather than isolated stems. Pair it with mounding flowers and ornamental grasses to balance the height and keep the planting feeling full at ground level. Give it sun and good drainage, then water as needed to keep growth steady through heat. If you want tall, airy summer color with a unique texture, this plant delivers.

My Dobermans favorite toy to destroy, and one of our recommended picks.
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
Ok, here's an honest breakdown review. I have a 6 month old Doberman who shreds every stuffed animal and dog bed he's come across. He's one of the worst chewers I've owned. We have tried a WIDE variety of stuffed toys. That said, this elephant is his favorite toy. I have ordered 4 of them so far, and just ordered another 4-pack on a buy three get one free deal. The elephant stands out above all the other stuffed creatures from goDog for me as to durability. Hence why I keep buying more. But they usually last about 2-3 weeks on average. In our house, the poor creatures are subjected to vicious, crazy, shaking of the head, helicopter type rotation. It' so hard if it hits your bare arm or leg it actually stings especially when its wet. Then the old, put it between his legs laying down, tearing at the legs action. The limbs are usually the first things to go over time. But they are each almost self sealing, so you clean up as little fluff and keep using it. Eventually the pup reaches the main body and finishes it off. For a normal light to normal chewer, one of two will get you a long way. For those of us resigned to having zoomie type manic chewers that need a constant supply of toys, 2-3 week durability is pretty sound too. I do not recommend the green cheaper monster. It lasted about 45 minutes. The free replacement took about 3 days. Hopefully this aids you in your decision!

Very durable for rowdy pups
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
This toy has outlasted any other dog toy I have ever bought. I have one large and one medium dog who share toys, fight over toys, chew them to death and still play with them. It might be because it isn't one of their favorites. I don't know. All I know is that our house is littered with dog toys in different states of destruction and this elephant toy has very little damage. It has definitely been in the dog toy rotation. I had this toy for 2 months without any major damage. The day I wrote the review the dogs tore the leg off! I still think it is a good toy. Some toys lose the stuffing or squeaker the first day.

Great toy for a smaller dog
Color: Checkers - Dinos Bruto (Purple), Size: Mini
This is a small, firm, sturdy toy designed for chewing. It isn't a soft toy and it does not have a squeaker. My dog is only 8 lbs, and this is a perfect size for her. I discovered these smaller toys through my groomer. Other manufacturers make this size, as well. The "hard chew" part indicates that this toy will not be chewed to death easily. The oldest one that we have is still in good condition. It's a baby duck (also available on Amazon) and it's over a year old. The dinosaur is colorful, easy to throw, and a really cute. Every night, my dog gives these small toys a bath, cleaning them up by licking each one before going to sleep. It's as if they are her babies. Since she never had a liter, my vet said that they are about the size that her babies would have been, so she may see them as her babies. She treats them well. Every now and then they go" swimming" in the washing machine and come out looking bright and new again.

Updated, still going !! didn't last two minutes.
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large, Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
I hated giving this a 1 star, because it was so cute when I unpacked it today. I just gave it to my dog and in less than two minutes he has a hole ripped in it.! he loves it so I don't wanna take it away from him, but I'm sure it's going to be gone in another few minutes. Why can't someone make a stuffed animal for a dog that lasts like they say so on their listing? I really should take it away from him and send it back, but I don't have the heart. I had to come back and give this a better review. it deserves at least four stars because even though he ripped holes in it, this one has lasted way longer than any other toy. He's actually still playing with it, and it still has some crinkle left to it so he didn't destroy the whole thing as quickly as he did other stuffed animals. I will certainly buy another one because at least it lasted a week so far!

Looks Nice But Destroyed by my Lab
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large, Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
A really cute little elephant. My lab loved it and carried it around for a week. Then the elephant began losing body parts. Both legs are gone now plus the big squeaker. Lab still likes the elephant and carries it around. Its loosing stuffing and the real question is what body part is next. Its nice but not tough.
