Plant Care

Everything you need to know to keep your plant happy and thriving.

☀️

Light

Medium Light

💧

Water

Moderate watering. Keep the compost lightly moist but never waterlogged. Allow the top few centimetres of compost to dry slightly between waterings. Peace Lilies will often droop when thirsty but usually recover quickly after watering.

🌱

Soil

Free-draining houseplant compost with added perlite to improve drainage while retaining light moisture.

🪴

Repot

Repot every 1–2 years in spring if rootbound. Move up one pot size only. Peace Lilies flower best when slightly pot-bound.

💡 Joe's Top Tip

Bright, indirect light encourages more frequent flowering, although this variety will tolerate lower light levels. Wipe the leaves regularly to remove dust and help the plant photosynthesise efficiently.

⚠️ Common Mistake

Most people struggle with Peace Lilies by overwatering or assuming every drooping leaf means the plant is dying. They naturally wilt when thirsty and usually perk up within a few hours of being watered.

🌿 Plant Fact

The elegant white "flower" is actually a modified leaf called a spathe. The true flowers are the tiny blooms covering the central cream-coloured spike (spadix).
