How to care for your SPATHIPHYLLUM

The care level

When choosing your plant pay attention to your lifestyle and the care level of that plant. Some might need a little more care than others. But they all have a chance to grow and thrive in your home. 


Let's get to know SPATHIPHYLLUM, better known as the Peace lily

The Peace lily is native to Colombia and Venezuela. So they prefer warm and humid surroundings. They produce beautiful glossy green leaves and under the right conditions will flower. When the leaves droop on this easy-care plant, it’s trying to tell you that it needs some water. Plant tip: Provide semi-shade in the summer and bright indirect light in the winter.

Conditions

Watering

The growing medium should be kept moist most of the time with frequent watering and a little misting.

A lower temperature could affect the plant, but it will also dry out if placed to close to a radiator. 

Location

Peace lilys should be kept indoors.
