The Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) is a popular and elegant indoor plant known for its lush green foliage and beautiful white flowers. Here are some care tips for maintaining a healthy Peace Lily plant:
### Peace Lily Care Tips:
1. **Light:**
– Peace Lilies prefer bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. They can also tolerate low light conditions but may not flower as profusely.
2. **Watering:**
– Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while underwatering can cause the leaves to wilt.
3. **Humidity:**
– Peace Lilies thrive in high humidity environments. To increase humidity, you can mist the plant occasionally or place it on a tray of pebbles filled with water.
4. **Temperature:**
– Maintain temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing the plant to cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
5. **Fertilization:**
– Feed your Peace Lily with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
