The Peace Lily, scientifically known as Spathiphyllum, is a plant that epitomizes serenity and beauty. Nestled gracefully in a 12cm pot, this exquisite houseplant is more than just a stunning addition to your interior space; it symbolises tranquility and grace.
Native to the rainforests of Central and South America, the Peace Lily is a member of the Araceae family, renowned for its lush, green foliage and elegant white flowers. This plant is famous for its purity and timeless charm, making it a perfect choice for any home.
Peace Lilies are also remarkably easy to look after for something so exotic looking - keep them in a semi-shaded position and you’re on the right track. Think of them peeping out of the dappled shade in the rainforest and you’ll have the right idea for their care. A lot of people assume that tropical plants must like full sun but generally, with rainforest plants that’s not the case - the forest provides lots of shade so many plants prefer not to be in the full glare of the sun.

Caring for Your Peace Lily:
To ensure the well-being and vitality of your Peace Lily, follow these essential care guidelines:
Light Requirements: Place your Peace Lily in an area with bright, indirect light. While it thrives in moderate to high light conditions, protect it from harsh, direct sunlight that could harm its leaves. Ideal spots include areas near north or east-facing windows.
Temperature and Humidity: Maintain a warm and mildly humid environment. The Peace Lily prefers temperatures between 18°C and 26°C (65°F and 80°F) and appreciates a slight boost in humidity. You can achieve this by misting the leaves or using a humidifier, promoting healthy growth and flowering.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering. Wait until the top inch of soil has slightly dried out before watering again. Striking the right balance is crucial, as both underwatering and overwatering can affect the plant's health.
Soil and Potting: Use a well-draining potting mix tailored for tropical plants. The Peace Lily prefers soil that retains moisture while allowing excess water to escape freely. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water buildup. Repotting may be necessary every couple of years or when the plant outgrows its current container.
Fertilizing: Feed your Peace Lily with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every two to four weeks during the active growing season, typically spring and summer. Follow the recommended dosage and application instructions on the fertilizer label.
