Spathiphyllum, or Peace Lily (also called "Moonflower"), is a beautifully blooming white flower with rich, thin green leaves. It is one of the more common houseplants we may see-and very easy to take for granted-but there is always something more we can learn about our plants-even those most common ones. In this episode, I'll take you through some of its natural history and care tips.

Peace lily, the number 1 drama queen of my indoor plants collection 😅

[@staceycato5859]

I bought one two weeks ago and it was fine- this morning, it was dropped! This is my first dramatic plant.

[@nabeela9327]

Haha

[@terrasworld4170]

Most defiantly! Named one Lilian for that reason lol...and I had the nerve to get two! Lol sucking me dry.

[@tanya9nithreus]

@@staceycato5859 Hahaha the same thing happened to me when I got my peace lilly years ago! ... I was asking on forums thinking some weird disease had struck it and the answer was "it's dehydrated". I watered it and ... heck, that thing really was just dehydrated LOL.

[@r.b.8061]

In my opinion it is the easiest and hardy plant for indoor at all. Even if they dry out, the will return very fast. It is for me a non problem plant. Only spider plants are more easy.

[@kristinakristina]

This plant was gifted to us at my younger sisters funeral service a few days ago. I’m feeling overwhelmed (never been into plants before) but I will do everything I can to keep it alive in memory of my sister. Thank you for the video.

[@alexmiddlemas-taylor532]

My family was also gifted a peace lily when my grandfather died in 2001. My mom takes care of it still to this day. I think of him every time I see it. It needs to be re potted though, it's massive.

[@stckgrl]

Sorry for your loss.

[@gloriahardiman4831]

Sorry for your loss, my father law passed 15 years ago, and I can honestly say that I kept his Peace Lilly until last year, I would go and talk to it just as if it was him still alive.i kept it in my den with not much sunlight, would check it to make sure that it wasn't dry. Took it to my kitchen sink and water it if it were dry, finally I guess that he wanted to rest i Took it out in my backyard and buried it.

[@jeaninequintiliano4292]

I was scrolling down the comments and came across yours, and I was overwhelmed. I just lost my youngest sister (family of 11) a week ago at the age of 51. She died in a car accident. I just received this plant which was gifted to me as well. I took don't know much about plant care but I would like to keep this plant healthy. RIP to your younger sister and mine.

[@NaturalNikkiDST]

Same this plant was given to me in honor of my father. My father had a green thumb when it came to his garden. I’m trying my best to keep it alive in honor of him. This is kindof a complicated plant.

[@alfredmeneses5496]

Dare I say it... I actually love this plant for the foliage more than the blooms. Lol The two I have, I bought because they had huge leaves even though they had no blooms.

[@summerrayneoakes7338]

Yeah, some of the cultivars have really impressive leaf size.

[@catherinedesilets8960]

Me too!! I bought this plant cause the leaves are so so so gorgeous I tell mine every single day how gorgeous he is And now he bloomed I now have 6 huge blooms plus another 4 babies I see coming out :) Mine is like 3 feet tall & 2 feet wide :)

[@Plantsandtoyhorses]

Same here, I bought my spath when it was just foliage and it was because of the foliage. If it blooms its nice, of course but i don't let it keep blooms for too long because it eventually sheds tiny pollen bits that fall onto the leaves and my floor^^

[@hibao7952]

Agree, the leaves are attractive. My plant is 15 years old, and it still looks good.

[@youttt27]

Probably needs more light

[@stevewilliams2792]

Yeah/Right..... I'm a roughneck, construction guy who just happens to like plants at home, indoors and outdoors. My mother is the Peace Lily Queen and they bloom (potted or not) at her command. It took her 30 years to teach me these basic steps. LEAVE THEM ALONE! I currently have 4 Peace Lillies and they DO NOT care for you to read to them, bless them, stare at them, or touch them. Currently, my 4 share 27 blooms and I learned that they love red neck love. Indoors, between 69-71 degrees, SE window, 4 foot fluorescent light with grow light bulbs, one filter full of used coffee grinds every 6 weeks (Dunking Dark), and every 5-7 days water till it runs out of the bottom. Other than that, they don't want me to look at them on my way by. Of the 4, 3 of them are over 30 years old and 3 generations. The 4th is a Lowes plant that's 6-7 and a hybrid.

What's been the most difficult aspect do you think?

[@FaviansWorld]

@@summerrayneoakes7338 the first one I killed I thought it was the common death of many house plants... over watering. The second two I believe its inconsistent watering. The one I have now is mostly dead, but has new growth.

Me too. I did move the location for saveral time in every place of my house but still not work out. It keeps grow new leaf but small and brown at the tip

[@frasercook5823]

@@FaviansWorld A good rule for these is when the leaves droop, water it until the water runs through. The plant tells you when it needs water. Overwatering causes root rot and brown tips along with high fertilizers. Watering it less won't damage it like most aroids

Try Semi hydroponics. Its the only way i was able to keep mine alive

Excellent video...finally someone who gives the whole story. I finally learned that I can give my plant fertilizer once a month, January through August. Thanks very much.

[@packer812]

My peace lily is my most forgiving of all of my plants. It has grown enormously I've had to repot it every year, and it is now a floor plant. Humidity is very low in my apartment (in the winter it can get below 20%) and I forget to water it all the time. It can go weeks without water. I've also kept it in a spot that literally doesn't get sunlight at all. Despite all of this, it blooms every year and look very healthy. I have now moved it to a spot where it gets more light, so I am very courious to see what happens. Maybe it doesn't like it? We'll see.

Such an easy plant to grow. It basically tells me what it wants. 😂 I have it located under a small window in my enclosed breezeway here in Burbank. During the fall and winter months (which are short here) the Santa Ana winds and cold make things super dry here. I set out my humidifier during the day and all my plants seem to thrive.

Down here in the southern hemisphere the morning sun is also eastern.. 😄 the only difference in northern / southern exposure during winter

[@julliustanguilan9688]

[@musicalmarion]

Mine is flowering in a very dark area of the house, it seems to prefer low light. A very easy plant with a toxic immunity to bugs. Thanks Summer

[@Nhoj31neirbo47]

You covered it quite well. I would add that since Spathiphyllums have vigorous root systems, (as shown herein), potting them in large pots encourages them to grow bigger, remain healthy and also reduces the likelihood of them drying out and wilting. If one wants to restrict the pot size you can periodically divide the plant, (as shown herein). Alternatively one can repot by pruning about 1/3 of the roots off the root ball and refreshing the soil mix with new soil. When keeping Spathiphyllums in smallish pots it’s a good idea to leech the soil every few months to flush out salts / mineral buildup that can damage plant tissues.

[@DicasLegaisDemais]

I wonder if you could tell me what I did wrong with my peace lily, which I owned for over 15 years. It was beautiful, but I thought it had overgrown the pot it was planted, as well as the soil was used up and old. So I bought a bag of container soil, and transferred the plant to its new pot. I was surprised to find out that there were about 8 plants, as I transferred them. Well, the next day, they were all droopy, and never recovered. Several months later, I finally pulled them out of the soil yesterday, cut all the brown leaves (no green left anyways), and stuck the root pieces in water. Still hoping for a miracle.

[@lukebryant]

I love this plant!! I have four growing in my flat in Melbourne, Australia. The largest of them I have growing in a mix made of part orchid bark and peat. I was having big problems with gnats and I have found that this mix works for my large peace Lily I just have to water it more. I also give mine banana water which I make by soaking banana peels in water for a week.

[@missrobinson1212]

my spath is living in water. recovering from when I gave it stem rot back in summer🙃. yes. even you can give a peace lily stem rot with too much humidity.

Thank you for saying it is toxic to pets and kids!!

[@xfortunesquex]

I have two of these: Domino and... I'm not sure the other variety, but it can get large. A neighbor gave them to my mom prior to moving away about 15 years ago. They had a near-death experience during a move 3 years ago, and I've been nursing them back to health ever since. One thing I've noticed is if you want big growth, you need light. I have a grow light on both of mine and they have started to bloom for the first time since their accident! They used to be in 5+ gallon pots, and now they're in a 10in and an 8in. These plants want to keep going! (Edit: the near-death experience was a family friend putting them in full sun in Georgia in June.)

[@mmcclam]

My peace Lilly seems to be happiest with super infrequent water no matter where I put it. It’s in terra cotta and I maybe water it twice a month. It’s almost always bone dry. No idea what cultivar it is, but it goes against any peace lilly advice I’ve ever heard. Now that I finally stopped keeping it moist I’ve grown to really love it!

[@2prettyfunnythings736]

I’ve had mine for years, it’s huge and gets north west sun all day. I Water it once a week maybe or I just wait until it starts to wilt. It blooms a lot.I love peace lilies. Had no idea they were related to philodendron, that’s probably why I love them. Easy and beautiful. In my area they have the negative of being the funeral plant.

[@allentarver6286]

I went through so many of these plants but never gave up! After trying so many places in my home I finally found the sweet spot. It is the window with high light with open window blinds and it's in the room with my very large aquarium {adds humidity}. Mine is now at least 4 ft. now. I found that putting ashes from my wood stove in it just B4 watering saves the day. I think that something in Boston MA. water henders it and the ashes help neutralizes the old problem.

[@tamsynbouttell8184]

Thank you for this video! My peace lily was the first plant I was gifted when I returned to my home country about a decade ago. It flowered beautifully the first year I had it and then for the last 6 years it has, and I'm sure it was out of spite, refused to respond to whatever care I gave it. Then two years ago it started to look terrible, it clearly was not happy and the leaves wilted and turned brown. I repotted with fresh soil, positioned it in what should have been the correct light and it just got worse and worse. Eventually when I was ready to throw it away my partner repotted it again and put it outside (what!?) with our clivia's (indigenous to my country South Africa and also shade loving) and it is now thriving and flowered for the first time again last month. Its only one lonely flower but somehow my indoor peace lily wants to be outside! Thankfully where I live in South Africa is considered a horticultural zone 1(coastal summer rainfall. Frost free, minimum temperature for coldest month: 5°C to 10°C) This video has given me a ton of extra information that I am looking forward to putting into practice so thank you :)

[@mhrancharkajian2866]

My Peace Lily is doing great in my home. It's near the window and got 2 hours of sun light and the rest of the day still near the window. Now i have 6 flowers (in July) and flower almost all the year. I fertilize it with a balance fertilizer (10 10 10) 2 times a month (from March to September) and reported it every 2 years. Now it's really huge and so adorable. I'm living in Germany

They are 9 years old this year and came off my mothers original that was almost 16 years old when it died. Our house humidity is around 60% year round due to 6 large aquariums we have. They are in a south facing window with a growlight on a 12 hour timer. I keep the soil wet, a tray of constantly wet pebbles underneath and sphagnum moss covering the soil.

I am glad that you mentioned the diseases these plants - Anthurium and the Spathiphyllum get. Recently, two of my Anthurium plants died after their leaves turned yellow and dropped. At first, I tought that the tiny bugs I saw in the organic soil were the cause, but I learnt that they were beneficial bugs that help break down the organic matter in the soil.

[@annewatman677]

I have somehow managed to keep a peace lily going for over 10 years, but right now it’s hanging on by a thread. I kept hearing that they are so easy to grow, but that hasn’t been the case for me. Mine rarely blooms, and I’ve gotten 2 flowers at a time at most. Right now, it looks awful, and I’m not sure what’s going on. I’ve moved it to different locations, and it’s just not happy. BUT, I’m going to take a look at the roots, and possibly add fresh soil, and definitely do some trimming. Thank you so much. This is the most helpful info I’ve been able to find.

[@vegascece]

My Peace Lily was a gift to my Mom on her last Mother's Day in 2008. It's now barely hanging on and it's heartbreaking. I thought putting it under grow lights would help since I have a very low light home due to patios, porches, etc. keeping the sun out. It has only bloomed twice in 13 years despite trying everything. I will follow the guidelines you've set and see if I can keep "Lizzy" going and revive her. Thanks!

[@c.j.harden479]

I love your videos!!! I have learned so much. I also love Peace Lilies. They were my introduction to Aroids and have done very well for me. I live in the S.E. and have only had 2 bad(ish) experiences. Once I put a Peace Lily on my front porch for re-potting on a dry day, got distracted, and the next thing I knew it was dead. :-( Totally my fault. More recently I was taking apart one of those fancy flower arrangements. Part of it was a small Peace Lily (which I'm sure I had over-watered). It was potted in coconut coir and probably had root rot. I re-potted it in a normal potting mix, but it still was not thriving. It may seem cruel, but I watered it with hydrogen peroxide for a couple of months, and it totally sprang back to health. Now I am watering and fertilizing it in the normal fashion, and it is sending up inflorescence after inflorescence... a very happy ending. Meanwhile, the large Peace Lily in my dining room really, really, really needs to be divided, but I think I'll wait till Spring.

How sweet! I bought my first Spath (Domino) at around the same time. Aren’t they great? Mine keeps getting new leaves. What light exposure do you have yours in? Have you repotted yet? Edited for spelling

[@motorez1]

Thnk you! My peace lillies flower all year round! I have two of them, they won't stop making new flowers

[@renosplants1048]

Just brought home my moms fifteen-year-old Peacy Lily, and I just repotted it for the first time. And now I pray. 😂

[@AllenPinheiro]

You are so elegant to watch and hear.a very sophisticated green room 👍

[@whitedoug121]

the fact you were very knowledgeable and have a berimbau hanging up has completely got me to subscribe.

[@Maya_Man]

I’m so

[@rizwansaqib2065]

I’m from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and I’ve got two spathes appear on my peace lily since November 🙌 It hasn’t bloomed since I bought mine in 2018 and it may not have done so until I placed mine next to my west facing window and grouped it amongst my other humidity loving plants!

[@cat3112]

I have a peace lily from my nephew funeral i want keep it for as long as i can so far so good ive never had good LUCK with them thank ufor the info about them❤

[@RAMROD1847]

Never had a garden but then I had the brilliant idea of starting an indoor garden. I have 3 peace lillies to start me off. This guide was very helpful

[@autumn5852]

That just sounds like you’ve got house plants, so I’m guessing you haven’t just got a few plants in your room, you’ve actually filled half your room with soil 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve never seen an indoor garden so I’m trying to picture it. All I can imagine is you’ve filled half the room with soil and you’re slowly filling it up with plants 🤷🏻‍♀️ it looks good in my imagination anyway ☺️

[@StuidoXXIII]

I'm so glad to have found you, you are my go to plant girl for info. I just learning a little about plants but when it come to feeding, pruning, propagating or preparing substrate for the plants I'm just a disaster.

[@reginaneufeld1092]

Thankyou. You are new to me but I found this very helpful

[@saraalicea3363]

Thanks for sharing, very much appreciated ❤️

[@shanetaylor1858]

Thank you, this is a lot of great information!

[@cutecactuspot4098]

I grew it from little baby. Its next to South facing door. Plenty of bright light and little bit of morning sun. And multiply to another pot that also has 2 flowers

[@EchoNine1]

I recently got my first peace lily, and it’s growing new leaves and all. However, it has shown dry tips, and the internet says it’s due to inconsistent watering, too much watering, too little watering, etc. i’m not going to change how i water it just yet, we’ll see how it goes. It’s my first house plant, so i’m really stocking up on all the info i can get

[@kmaya1024]

Put my peace lily in an east facing window in the summer where it was getting 6hrs of direct light and it burned and died. Now my new peace lillies sits on the floor and it's thriving because it only gets indirect light. The thing I'm struggling with is yellowing leaves after watering. I'm using distilled water but I think I might just be letting it get too dry before watering (it's usually full droop limp when I do water) and the yellowing is due to stress.

[@robertatorselli8007]

Ok, thanks! I’ll try your tips. I’m trying to keep my moms peace Lilly. It’s starting to brown again, it may not be humid enough and I had it on a windowsill, so I’ll move it

[@AndreeaWest]

Thank you for the info and for also using Celsius degrees. 🥰

[@tatianamitioglova4644]

Thank you for such a helpful video!

[@c3whitefangalexandradiaz20]

I'm really new to plants, but so far I've been able to keep mine alive for three months. I keep it in my room with an LED light that turns on an off everyday. Before this video I wouldn't think it's a hard plant to keep, honestly. You just have to remember to water it, and by water I mean dunk that plant in water every week. I don't water it more than that, but that's because it's passed it's blooming stage. When it starts to bloom I'll probably have to water it more. It's honestly a nice plant to have, and a bit of a drama queen when you're late on the watering.

[@shawshank6015]

I like that you mentioned the degree measurements thank you

[@patriciasmith9039]

I had 5 blooms on mine last summer, at one time, in humid, dappled, outside light...

[@rramos3157]

Thank you for sharing your tips! Very helpful! I recently purchased a peace Lily and transplanted it into a clay pot and noticed lower brown leafs. Will look at your other videos on fertilizer and getting rid of gnats. Also what is a good soil mix? Newly subscriber!🙌

[@penn2pal]

I’m a new plant mom. My peace lily needs repotting and I ran across your video. I loved the details you provided. I especially love your mix. I think I have most of the ingredients just from researching from other sites I follow. I purchased coco coir chips. Can I use that instead of the brick? Had I found you first, I wouldn’t have been so afraid of the brick. Also, can I make a large qty or is it best to mix only what you need? I’m going to search for how you added this to repot the peace lily. God bless you for sharing your knowledge. I hope to hear back from you soon.

[@janeeirvin5724]

Great video. Thank you for sharing.

[@jessyacevedo102]

Mine has some brown in it. I took them out of the ground and loosened up the roots I did break up some of the brown but I didn't fully remove it. It did have a ton more white roots but way smaller or very thin and extra long. There was black roots and I removed those but it could of been the black mesh I used as a bed for mulch. I reported it in all purpose soil from Lowes. I put them in a much less direct sunlight. They seem to be doing much better now it's been over 2 days. They still look like they're having a bad hair day. I'm not giving up on them.

[@edgarcanalita2507]

Mine was efin drama queen. Right now shes under with big plants and thriving even direct sunlight

[@princyjoseph2729]

I needed this video Thank you 😊

[@AliDellVideo]

Awesome video. Currently keep mine in the bathroom with a Calathea. Both love misting and filtered water 😁

[@jenniferjallo3099]

My Domino has some half moon leaves on it, so stunning. Also have a Jessica and Picasso. I love the verigated ones more than solid green.

[@summerrayneoakes7338]

The Picasso is divine.

[@jenniferjallo3099]

Was by far the hardest plant for me to find, living in rural North Dakota, took a year and a half.

[@Patricia-uu6wo]

Couple of months back I just recently repotted a peace lily that I had for about 2 years I would like to know you mentioned in one of your airings that what causes yellowing of the leaves I'm seeming to be having problems now that I done replanted it thanks

[@m11nt]

I'm planning on buying the Sensation variety.

[@uranne]

0:42 Ah yes, I see the Philippines highlighted in the map. My peace lily just sprouted new leaves and they bring me a lot of joy. 6:26 Yes, heat is not that big of an issue. When they were given to me, the leaves were narrow and had black spots on the sides. I thought the plant was going to die. I have been keeping it outdoors and just leave it there no matter the weather. It gets a lot of sun and rain. Now, it is sprouting new, healthy, wide, beautiful leaves.

[@banozaki5777]

Thank you for explaining almost everything about this plant. I have one question I hope you have a write answer. I have 2 pots of PL I put them far from sun light I watered them once a week or when I see the leaves droopy , but some of the leaves became burned . They are not sitting on draft air location.. What causes that burning.. Thank you in advance
