Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum)

The Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) is one of the most popular indoor plants known for its graceful white blooms and rich green foliage. Valued for its air-purifying qualities, this tropical plant thrives in indoor spaces and adds a calm, elegant touch to any home or office. Its signature white spathes—often mistaken for flowers—emerge throughout the year and contrast beautifully with its lush leaves.

The Peace Lily is ideal for low to moderate light environments and is well-suited for bedrooms, living rooms, offices, and shaded corners. Its soft appearance, minimal care needs, and proven ability to remove toxins from the air make it a favorite choice for modern interiors across Dubai and the UAE.

Plant Care Instructions

Watering
Water once the top inch of soil feels dry. Peace Lilies prefer consistently moist soil, but be careful not to overwater. Drooping leaves usually signal the need for a drink and perk back up quickly after watering.

Light Requirements
Thrives in indirect or filtered light. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, while low light may reduce flowering. A bright room away from direct rays is ideal.

Temperature
Prefers indoor temperatures between 18°C to 24°C. Avoid placing it near drafts, cold windows, or heat sources.

Humidity
Appreciates moderate to high humidity. Mist occasionally or use a humidity tray in dry indoor climates, especially during summer or when using AC.

Fertilizer
Feed with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

Soil
Use well-draining, fertile potting soil. A peat-based mix with added perlite or coco coir works well.

Toxicity
Mildly toxic if ingested. Keep out of reach of pets and small children.

Maintenance
Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to remove dust. Remove any yellowing or spent blooms to encourage new growth.
