6. Place your peace lily in a bright spot
Peace lilies love bright indirect light. A spot near a window is ideal, but avoid exposing them to direct sunlight, which can burn their leaves.
7. Keep your peace lily at a moderate temperature
Peace lilies prefer moderate temperatures, between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. They can tolerate lower temperatures, but they won’t grow as well.
8. Reduce watering and fertilizing in winter
In winter, peace lilies slow their growth. Reduce watering and fertilizing by half.
9. Repot your peace lily as needed
If your peace lily starts to outgrow its pot, it’s time to repot it into a larger pot. Repot your plant in early spring, before the start of the new growing season.
10. Protect your peace lily from pests and diseases
Peace lilies are generally resistant to pests and diseases, but they can be susceptible to mealybugs, spider mites, and fungal diseases. Inspect your plant regularly and treat any problems as soon as you notice them.
By following these simple tips, you can grow a lush and healthy peace lily that will add a touch of beauty and peace to your home.
Here are some additional tips for growing a lush peace lily:
- If your peace lily is losing leaves, it may be too dry. Water it more.
- If the leaves of your peace lily are brown or yellow, it may be too wet. Let the soil dry out before watering again.
- If the leaves of your peace lily are curled, it may not be getting enough light. Place it in a brighter spot.
- If the leaves of your peace lily are covered in brown spots, it may have a pest or disease problem. Inspect the plant carefully and treat any problems as soon as you notice them.
I hope this guide helps you grow a lush and healthy peace lily in your home.
