The peace lily, known scientifically as Spathiphyllum, is a very popular houseplant due to its beauty and air-purifying properties. If you want to make your peace lily bloom and keep it healthy, there are a few important guidelines to follow.
In this article, we’ll explore all the steps you need to take to grow and thrive the peace lily in order to make it bloom abundantly.
Adequate light: The peace lily grows best in environments with strong indirect light. Avoid direct sun exposure, which can burn delicate leaves. Place the plant near a window or in a well-lit area of your home. If light isn’t enough, you can use full-spectrum artificial lights to provide the right amount of light.
Temperature and humidity: These plants thrive in temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid sudden changes in temperature and cold drafts. The peace lily also loves humidity, so misting the leaves regularly or placing a humidifier nearby can help maintain a properly moist environment.
Watering: The golden rule for watering the peace lily is “less is more.” These plants prefer soil that is slightly moist but not submerged by water. Water only when the top inch of soil is dry. Be sure to use a pot with a good drainage system to prevent waterlogging, which can damage the roots.
