-
Origin and type: The Peace Lily Spathiphyllum 'Lima' is a popular tropical houseplant from Central and South America, known for its fresh green leaves and long flowering period with white flowers.
-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; direct sunlight can cause leaf burn. A bright location without direct sunlight is ideal, such as a north-facing window or a few meters from an east- or west-facing window.
-
Water: Needs more water than many other houseplants; water about twice a week in summer, less often in winter; the soil should remain moist but not soggy. If the soil dries out, the plant will droop, but will quickly stand upright again after watering.
-
Humidity: Likes high humidity; regular spraying with lime-free water helps prevent dry leaf edges and encourages flowering.
-
Temperature: Best temperatures are between 18 and 25°C; not colder than 15°C; avoid draughts.
-
Soil: Well-draining, moisture-retaining potting soil; use a pot with good drainage.
-
Feeding: Fertilize several times during the growing season (spring and summer) with liquid houseplant food; do not feed in autumn and winter.
-
Pruning: Remove old flowers and yellowed leaves to keep the plant healthy and encourage flowering.
-
Repotting: Repot every few years in spring in fresh potting soil to promote root growth.
-
Toxicity: Mildly toxic if swallowed; keep out of reach of children and pets.
-
Bonus: The Spathiphyllum 'Lima' can have a longer flowering period than many other varieties and is an air purifier; ideal for a pleasant and healthy indoor climate.
