FAQ about Peace Lily – Classic
How often should a peace lily be watered?
Water when the surface of the compost feels dry, usually once a week. The peace lily shows clearly when it is thirsty by drooping its leaves, and soon perks up after watering. Avoid leaving it standing in water.
What light does a peace lily need?
The peace lily thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch the leaves. It tolerates darker spots, but flowers less there.
Why are the leaves on my peace lily turning yellow?
Yellow leaves can be caused by too much water, too little light or the natural ageing of older leaves. Brown leaf tips usually mean dry air or hard water. Check your watering and move the plant somewhere brighter if necessary.
How do I get my peace lily to flower more?
Give the plant a bright spot, even watering and a liquid feed every two to four weeks during spring and summer. Plants that are slightly pot-bound often flower more freely.
Is the peace lily poisonous to pets?
Yes, the peace lily contains calcium oxalate crystals that irritate the mouth and throat of cats and dogs if they chew it, causing drooling and vomiting. Keep it out of reach of pets and contact a vet if your pet has eaten part of it.
