Propagation Methods: Can be propagated by dividing the root ball during repotting.

Pruning/Tidying Up: Remove yellowing leaves and spent flowers to maintain a tidy appearance and encourage new growth.

Placement

Indoor Placement: Ideal for placement in living rooms, bedrooms, or offices where it can receive indirect light. It’s also an excellent choice for low-light areas like hallways.

Container: Plant in a decorative pot or container with drainage holes to prevent root rot.

Spacing Requirements: When planted in groups, space plants approximately 15-20cm apart to allow for growth and airflow.

Compatibility

Indoor Compatibility: Peace Lilies are non-toxic to humans but can be mildly toxic to pets if ingested. Keep out of reach of pets and children.

Pest/Disease Resistance: Generally resistant to pests and diseases, but watch for common issues like spider mites or root rot due to overwatering.

Special Requirements or Tips

Special Care Instructions: Peace Lilies are sensitive to fluoride and chlorine in tap water, so it’s best to use distilled or rainwater. Wipe leaves regularly to remove dust and improve photosynthesis.

Seasonal Care: Reduce watering frequency in winter when the plant’s growth slows down. Maintain humidity by misting the leaves or placing the plant on a pebble tray.

Ecological Impact

Invasiveness: Not invasive; suitable for indoor environments and containers.

Benefit to Indoor Air Quality: Peace Lilies are known for their air-purifying qualities, helping to remove toxins like formaldehyde, benzene, and ammonia from indoor air.
