Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) is a popular indoor houseplant known for its glossy green leaves and elegant white “flower” spikes (called spathes). It’s often chosen because it’s low-maintenance and can tolerate lower light conditions.
🌿 Key features
- Botanical type: Tropical evergreen plant
- Flowers: White hood-like spathes with a central spike
- Air-purifying: Helps remove some indoor air pollutants
- Size: Usually 1–3 feet indoors (can grow larger in ideal conditions)
☀️ Light requirements
- Prefers bright, indirect light
- Can survive in low light, but may produce fewer flowers
- Avoid direct sun (it burns the leaves)
💧 Watering
- Likes slightly moist soil
- Water when the top inch of soil feels dry
- It will visibly droop when thirsty—but usually recovers quickly after watering
🌡️ Temperature & humidity
- Ideal: 18–27°C
- Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes
- Enjoys moderate to high humidity (typical indoor conditions in Multan can work if not too dry)
🪴 Soil & feeding
- Use well-draining potting soil
- Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced fertilizer (optional but helpful)
⚠️ Common issues
- Yellow leaves: often overwatering
- Drooping: usually underwatering (or sometimes overwatering)
- Brown leaf tips: dry air or salt buildup from tap water
☠️ Toxicity
Peace lilies are toxic to cats and dogs if ingested (can cause mouth irritation, drooling, vomiting).
