During these warm sunny days bright green Peace Lily plants are a great way to make a living space more like an oasis. This green plant is versatile and can be used for any occasion. It can be viewed from all sides when placed in the center of a table or a room.

The Peace Lily has a lot of names, whether you call it a Spathiphyllum or a white flag they make a big impact on making your house less humid and easier to live in. They make a room cheerier and more enjoyable.

Like most tropical green plants your Peace Lily should not dry out. Keep this plant’ soil moist to the touch. If your plant dries out to the point of drooping over the pot, do not worry, this plant will come back if you simply place the pot in a bucket of water for about ½ hour.

Feed it with a general house plant fertilizer, such as Miracle gro by Sterns or Rapidgro. Place your green plant in a spot that gets plenty of bright light – with no direct sunlight. This plant will give back in the form of Oxygen more than the care they take.

Avoid placing your plant in direct sunlight, on heat producing appliances or in a cold or hot draft.
