How to take care of a blooming peace lily?
They like water very much. In fact, I have one that isn't in soil, it's suspended in a water vase that I have a betta fish in. I'd say as long as it looks healthy, you are doing well... just make sure the soil is always slightly moist.
Reply:just wet the soil, not too much. You can buy a moisture indicator to stick in the pot that tells you when need water. Misting is also good.
Reply:Keep the soil moist,not soaking wet. You can water and allow water to drain so the plant is not standing in water. If the plant wilts, don't panic-just water and it will perk up.
I have found the white pollen from"flowers"/spathes can be a nuisance . So far I have not damaged plant by removing the "tongue" but it is up to you if you want neatness or esthetics.
This a great plant to grow and will tolerate some low light.
Reply:Peace lily will flourish in almost any well-drained potting mix. Soil should be kept moist but not soggy. The soil should dry out between waterings. Excessive drying out can cause the plant to wilt and the leaves and edges to yellow. When watering, use water that is at room temperature.
Peace lily will survive low interior light but would prefer bright filtered light. Peace lily should not be placed in direct sun or it will sunburn.
These plants need very little fertilizer. If you fertilize, use a balanced, liquid houseplant fertilizer such as 20-20-20 every two to three months.
Peace lilies enjoy warm conditions between 68 and 85 ° F during the day and nighttime temperatures about 10 ° F cooler.
Peace lilies have wide leaves that accumulate dust. Wipe leaves regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust.
