Fertilizer: The peace lily benefits from a light diet. During the growing season, which runs from spring to summer, you can fertilize the plant every 6 to 8 weeks with a balanced fertilizer. Reduce fertilizer in the fall and winter when the plant is at rest.
Pruning: Cut off yellow or damaged leaves to stimulate the growth of new leaves. Regular pruning can keep the plant in shape and prevent the accumulation of dead leaves.
Repotting: Repot your peace lily every 2-3 years or when you notice that the roots are filling the pot completely. Use good quality soils for houseplants and make sure the new pot is slightly larger than the previous one.
Cleaning: Wipe the leaves regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust. This will help the plant breathe better and maintain its ability to purify the air.
Common problems: Beware of pests such as aphids and mealybugs, which can attack the peace lily. Inspect the plant regularly and, if necessary, treat it with insecticides or natural solutions.
Reproduction: The peace lily can be propagated by dividing the rhizome or by cuttings. This allows you to get new plants from a healthy mother plant.
By following these steps carefully, you can make your peace lily bloom and keep it healthy over the years.
Not only does this plant add beauty to your home, but it also helps to improve air quality and create a healthier environment for you and your family.
