Popular Houseplant

The peace lily is a popular houseplant for a reason. It's easy to care for, it's beautiful, and it has some amazing benefits.

Easy to Care For

Peace lilies are very low-maintenance plants. They can thrive in low to medium light, and they don't need to be watered very often. In fact, overwatering is one of the most common causes of peace lily problems.

Beautiful

Peace lilies have glossy, dark green leaves and white flowers. The flowers are actually modified leaves called spathes. The spathes can last for several weeks, and they often produce a sweet fragrance.

Benefits

Peace lilies are known for their air-purifying abilities. They can remove toxins like formaldehyde and benzene from the air, which can improve your indoor air quality.

How to Care for a Peace Lily

Here are some tips on how to care for a peace lily:

• Water your peace lily when the top inch of soil is dry.
• Fertilize your peace lily once a month during the spring and summer months.
• Keep your peace lily in a spot with indirect sunlight.
• Mist your peace lily's leaves regularly to keep them clean and healthy.

Troubleshooting

If your peace lily's leaves are turning yellow, it's probably getting too much water. If the leaves are turning brown, it's probably not getting enough water. If the leaves are drooping, it's probably not getting enough light.

If you're having trouble caring for your peace lily, don't despair. There are plenty of resources available to help you. You can find books, websites, and even online forums dedicated to peace lily care.
