Care Guide
1.Light Requirements
- Preferred:Bright, indirect sunlight for optimal growth and blooming.
- Tolerates:Low to medium light conditions, though flowering may be reduced.
- Avoid:Direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, causing them to turn yellow or brown.
2.Watering
- Frequency:Water when the top 23 cm (1 inch) of soil feels dry.
- Method:Water thoroughly until excess water drains out of the pot. Always discard standing water to prevent root rot.
- Caution:Peace lilies prefer slightly moist soil but are sensitive to overwatering. Underwatering may cause drooping, which can be quickly resolved with a thorough watering.
3.Humidity
- Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels (5060%).
- Place near a humidifier, mist occasionally, or use a pebble tray with water to maintain humidity, especially during dry winters.
4.Temperature
- Ideal range: 1827C (6580F).
- Protect the plant from temperatures below 15C (59F), cold drafts, and air conditioning vents.
5.Soil
- Requires a well-draining, rich potting mix.
- A general-purpose houseplant soil mixed with a bit of perlite or sand ensures good drainage.
6.Fertilising
- Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser every 46 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
- Avoid over-fertilising, as it can cause brown leaf tips. Reduce feeding in autumn and winter.
7.Pruning
- Remove any yellowing, damaged, or dead leaves at the base with clean scissors.
- Cut spent flowers at the base to encourage new blooms and maintain the plants tidy appearance.
8.Repotting
- Repot every 23 years or when the plant becomes root-bound.
- Use a slightly larger pot with fresh soil to support continued growth.
9.Flowering Tips
- Regular care and bright, indirect light encourage flowering.
- If the plant does not flower, ensure it is receiving sufficient light and nutrients.
10.Common Problems
- Drooping Leaves:Typically caused by underwatering or overwatering. Check the soil and adjust watering accordingly.
- Brown Leaf Tips:Often due to low humidity, over-fertilising, or using water with high fluoride content. Increase humidity and consider using distilled or filtered water.
- Yellow Leaves:May result from overwatering, poor drainage, or ageing foliage. Address the watering routine and remove old leaves as necessary.
11.Pests
