How to care for your Spatifilium

Use these instructions to care for a Spatifilium. This guide will tell you how to water a Spatifilium ; its light, temperature, and humidity preferences, and any additional care it may need to help it grow.

These plants actually prefer humid heat. Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 55 degrees F, as the plant will die at cold temperatures.

The ideal temperature range is 65 to 80 degrees. Mist the leaves weekly with soft or distilled water throughout the summer growing season.

Feed weekly in summer or use slow-release pellets early in the season. Do not fertilize in winter.

Protect your children and pets from peace lilies. Although they are not true lilies and are not lethal, they can irritate the stomach or cause extreme salivation if ingested.

There are few pest and disease problems with peace lilies, although mealy bugs are sometimes a problem. 1 Wiping the leaves with a damp cloth is often enough to eliminate these pests.

Common problems for your Spatifilium

The most common reason for your Peace Lily's striking green leaves to turn yellow is overwatering. Sometimes, factors like a sudden change in temperature or location can also stress the plant, causing its leaves to turn yellow.

Peace lilies hate the cold, so when exposed to cold drafts or temperatures below 40 ° F (4 ° C), you may witness some leaf curling or yellowing.

How to fix it?

If you are overwatering your plant, stop immediately and follow the tips above in this article.

Your Peace Lily will flourish in temperatures of 65-80 ° F (18-27 ° C), which is what makes it a great indoor plant. Don't be careful not to place it in an area that is too cold or too hot.

Additionally, it's recommended to keep your dog away from uninsulated windows or doors during the winter months to protect it from cold drafts. Never place it in front of air conditioning vents or heaters.

Peace lilies rarely bloom in low light conditions. I know this plant is also known as the "closet plant" because it is very tolerant of low light conditions and could likely survive in a closet.
However, the truth is that its blooms will become increasingly scarce in low light, and then it will simply stop blooming.
As long as other care requirements are met, the foliage will not be affected by lower light, but there is not enough energy to allow the plant to flower.
Very occasionally, underfertilization can also cause your Peace Lily to fail to bloom. However, this will only happen to a plant that hasn't been fertilized or repotted for many years.

How to fix it?

For these plants to flourish, you need medium to bright indirect sunlight. This level of lighting is often more than you think, so make sure you are giving your Peace Lily what it needs.
And if you haven't fertilized your Peace Lily in a long, long time, one application of fertilizer is often enough to wake the plant up and begin the process of producing those characteristic blooms.
