About spatheflower
The peace lily is a popular, elegant plant and not actually a lily at all! In fact, theyâre more closely related to other houseplants like pothos and Monstera than actual lilies. The white âflowersâ are also not flowers, but specialized leaves that protect the tiny blossoms on the stalk in the center. Their âflowersâ may last as long as two months and they will continue to rebloom over time in the right conditions. âŽď¸

spatheflower may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves đ, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.

How to fertilize spatheflower
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil itâs likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your spatheflower after it doubles in size or once a yearâwhichever comes first.

Peace Lily. Yellow leaves, thinned out. I'm trying hard to keep him alive, but have no clue what I'm doing wrong.

Every time my peace lily puts out a new normal leaf, it quickly turns browns on the edges and eventually dies. This happens to all of the new growth. Any suggestions? #PeaceLily
