USES OF SPATHIPHYLLUM SWEET ROMANO

The Peace Lily will acclimate to a variety of indoor environments, and when in full bloom, it’s simply a beautiful plant that can make a statement in your home or office.

PLANT AND CARE

Light: Medium, indirect sunlight. Yellow leaves indicate the plant is getting too much light.

Temperature: No lower than 55 degrees—not even the breeze from an open door or window. If you need a jacket, your tropical plant needs one also.

Water: One of the great advantages in maintaining the Peace Lily is that it droops when water is needed. However, there are still a number of factors that can affect how often you water. The warmer the room temperature, the more water your plant will use. Wintertime heating is very drying and plants in the house will use more water in winter than in summer, generally. Water thoroughly with room temperature water, that is, pour water all around the soil until water comes out of the drain holes at the bottom. Standing water should not be left in the saucer for more than 15 minutes. No need to water again until the surface of the soil is just about dry (soil just beneath the surface should be slightly moist). The time between watering depends on how much light the plant is receiving and the room temperature. This is why checking soil moisture before watering is important.

Fertilizer: To ensure the best blooms, use fertilizer in the water according to package directions during summer months.
