Peace Lilly! For those of you who may have missed this, I have been doing a weekly houseplant post. Just for fun, and cuz I have a ton and love them! Peace Lilly is a lovely choice, relatively easy to care for and easy to find. You can find huge as well as desktop sized ones, and if you buy a new one you often find them in flower. Getting them to flower that prolifically again is tricky. This is because they actually treat them with a hormone so that they are in full flower for sales. So if yours have never flowered again, take heart, its not you! Mine flower typically one at a time a few times a year and this is what they also would do naturally. They are definitely a plant that wants regular watering so I have mine planted in a self watering pot. I also have it in a place that I can see it clearly (not in one of my jungles like the back of this photo LOL). They really wilt when they need water, but will bounce back fine if you do then water! A bright east or west window or a great office choice as they love artificial lights and have a lovely tropical feel that will brighten your day! Regular fertilizer during the growing season will keep them healthy and with a relatively high middle number will encourage flowers. They also like a nice misting and leaf wash. What has your experience been? Any tricks to share on getting them to produce more flowers?
