Buds appear regularly
Too dark? The plant stays green but never flowers.
Fix: Move it closer to a window — but not in direct sun.
2. Watering: Consistency Is Everything
Peace lilies are famous for drooping dramatically when thirsty — then perking up within hours of watering.
But too much drama stresses the plant and stops blooming.
How to Water Right:
Check the top inch of soil — if dry, it’s time to water
Water thoroughly — until water runs out the drainage holes
Let excess water drain — never let the pot sit in water
Use room-temperature water — cold shocks the roots
Pro Tip: If your tap water is high in fluoride or chlorine, use filtered or distilled water — peace lilies are sensitive.
3. Temperature & Humidity: Recreate the Rainforest
Peace lilies are tropical. They thrive in warm, humid air — not dry, drafty rooms.
Ideal Conditions:
Temperature
65–80°F (18–27°C)
Humidity
50–60% or higher
How to Boost Humidity:
Group plants together — they create a microclimate
Use a humidifier — especially in winter
Place on a pebble tray — with water (not touching the pot)
Mist occasionally — but don’t overdo it (can promote mold)
