Use filtered, room-temperature water, if possible. Peace lilies enjoy high humidity. Misting their leaves or placing their pot atop a moistened tray of gravel can help to increase humidity around the plant. Peace lilies are not heavy feeders, so fertilize only occasionally.

Where should I place a peace lily in my house?
Choose a spot for your peace lily.
The peace lily should be close to, but not directly under a window in a warm room in your house where it will benefit from indirect sunlight. North or West facing windows are best as these do not allow direct sunlight all day.
How do you take care of a peace lily indoors?
How to Grow and Care for Peace Lilies
- Place plants in bright, indirect light.
- Plant peace lilies in Miracle-Gro® Indoor Potting Mix for great results.
- Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy.
- A month after planting, feed plants with Miracle-Gro® Indoor Plant Food.
Do peace lilies need direct sunlight?
Peace lily prefers to have medium, indirect sunlight and will develop yellow leaves if it is getting too much light or very low light. Brown spots and streaks can also develop if direct sun is hitting the plant.
Should I cut the brown tips off my peace lily?
Once a stalk has made one flower, it won't make any more– after the flower fades, the stalk will eventually brown and die as well. Peace lily pruning should be done at the base of the plant. Cut the stalk off as close to the bottom as you can.
How do I get my peace lily to flower again?
Peace lilies require evenly moist, well-drained soil while growing and flowering. Remove spent flowers so that the plant will continue producing flowers. Increasing light, water, humidity and fertilizer may nudge a plant to flower. Older plants sometimes do not flower as well as young plants.
Are coffee grounds good for peace lilies?
Coffee Grounds make an excellent fertilizer for indoor plants as they are rich in nitrogen (2.5-3%). It is an essential nutrient if your Peace Lilies are to have green leaves and strong stems. Peace Lilies, in general, do well with fertilizer mixtures containing nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium.
How long do peace lilies live?
Predicting how long a plant can survive is hard to say. However, on the other hand, it is certainly possible to predict whether a plant would stick around enough to pay your investment back in it. On average, Peace Lilies can survive anywhere between three to five years.
Should I mist my snake plant?
Snake plants should not be misted at all. Being succulents, they prefer to remain dry. If we mist our snake plant, it is likely to make the foliage wet, resulting in root rot and pest problems in them. Snake plants thrive in average humidity levels ranging between 40-50%, and we must help the plant maintain the same.
Do you cut off dead peace lily flowers?
Do You Cut Off Dead Peace Lily Flowers? Once the blooms on a Peace Lily plant turn brown, they need to be trimmed for better growth. This will encourage your plant to bloom frequently. You should remove the dead flowers by cutting the stalk at the base.
Are peace lilies toxic to dogs?
Lilies (such as peace lily, calla lily, Easter lily and Tiger lily) are highly toxic and potentially fatal to cats. Some types are also toxic to dogs. Avoid having any plant from the lily family in or around the home. And be mindful of gifted flowers.
What to do when lilies have finished flowering?
Q: Once a lily has bloomed, should the stem be cut off or the entire plant be cut back? A: It's best just to remove the stem itself. Lilies, especially those from bulbs, will feed off the foliage and will grow better the next season if it's left until it dies off.
Why do peace lilies stop flowering?
The most common reason peace lilies don't bloom is because they aren't getting enough light, according to Clemson Cooperative Extension. Although they can grow in low light conditions, peace lilies won't bloom in the shade. The plants bloom best in bright or medium indirect sunlight.
