Remember 3 points for peace lily care, and it will grow vigorously, with large, lush green leaves and big, white spathes.
Peace lily, also known as white sail, is also called "plain sailing" and symbolizes safety wherever you go. Its leaves are large and lush green, evergreen all year round. When it blooms, it has pure white or slightly green spathes, and a creamy-yellow spadix. It belongs to a new generation of indoor varieties valued for both foliage and flowers, and it can purify the air, with a very strong ability to absorb acetone, formaldehyde, benzene and more. In recent years it has become deeply loved by many flower growers.
Some flower growers say it is rather hard to get the look they want, with leaves that wilt and blooms that are not especially good. Today Hua'er will introduce to everyone: when caring for a peace lily, know these 3 points well, and it will grow like crazy, with large, lush green leaves and big, white spathes.
1. Water
The peace lily likes a hot and humid environment. In summer, keep it appropriately moist so it can grow better, differentiate flower stalks, and form buds and bloom. When you see the potting soil is slightly white, you can water it thoroughly. In the morning and evening, you can sprinkle some water on the leaves to increase humidity.
In summer, almost every household uses an air conditioner, and you can collect air conditioner water to water it, which works even better. Tap water needs to sit for 3-4 days first, then take the clear upper liquid and add a little ferrous sulfate to improve the water quality.
2. Light
Light is very important for plant growth. The peace lily likes light but dislikes strong light. In summer, sunlight is intense, so avoid direct exposure and provide shade. You can place it near a south-facing windowsill and let it receive some scattered light. Outdoors, set up a shade net for it, with a light transmittance of 50%-70%.
3. Fertilizer
The peace lily has relatively high fertilizer requirements, and you must not apply concentrated fertilizer or raw fertilizer. It is best to apply some organic fertilizer, such as rotted soybean cake water or fermented rice washing water. In summer especially, apply thin fertilizer frequently, using diluted fertilizer water instead of plain water for watering. This avoids burning the roots, and also makes the peace lily grow more vigorously, with flowers that are big and white.
