Peace Lilies are one of the most popular houseplants and have been so for years. We love their glossy, dark green leaves but most of all the long-lasting white flowers that rise above.
Peace Lilies are slow to moderate growers. If the light is too low, the growth rate will be slow.
Peace lilies prefer moderate or medium light. Like many tropical houseplants, indirect sunlight is best.
This is one plant that likes regular watering. I let the top 2/3 of the soil dry out before watering again. I try not to let it completely dry out because the leaves and stems will go limp and droop in no time.
They prefer warmer temps. If your home is comfortable for you, it’ll be so for your houseplants too. Just be sure to keep your Peace Lilies away from any cold drafts as well as air conditioning or heating vents.
Spathiphyllums are native to damp rainforest regions. If yours is showing brown leaf tips, that’s a reaction to the dry air in our homes. Here in hot dry Tucson, mine have tiny brown tips but you have to look closely to see them.
