This guide provides a comprehensive guide on growing and caring for peace lilies, including choosing the right pot, meeting the plant’s light and water requirements, and propagating the plant. The first step is to choose a good spot for the peace lily, which should be above 60F (16C) and away from drafts and cold areas. The plant should also be kept away from direct sunlight.
To propagate the peace lily, prepare a fresh pot no larger than 6 inches in diameter and fill it with fresh potting soil. Remove the mother plant from its pot and repot the peace lily into a slightly larger pot with fresh compost every few years. Peace lilies thrive when their roots are slightly restricted, but recurrent wilting can indicate a problem.
With proper light, adequate water, correct fertilization, ideal temperature and humidity, well-drained soil, and pruning, peace lilies will give you their best. They are an ideal first-time houseplant for young gardeners and can brighten long, dreary winters.
When watering the peace lily, ensure that the soil is kept lightly moist but not overly saturated. They can tolerate short periods of dry soil, but their leaves will grow. Peace lilies need well-draining, all-purpose soil and can grow in water alone, with the base of the plant sitting above the waterline.
Hydrogen content is crucial for peace lilies, and they prefer to be watered thoroughly straight after re-potting. Light side dressings of Daltons Premium Goldcote Flower and Rose Fertilizer can also be applied during the growing process.
