Peace Lily

Create a calm and elegant indoor display with the Peace Lily, a popular tropical houseplant admired for its glossy dark green foliage and graceful white, sail-shaped flower spathes. Its lush appearance and neutral flower colour complement homes, offices, reception areas, and modern interior spaces.

Peace Lily prefers bright, indirect light, moderate humidity, and consistently moist but well-drained soil. It can tolerate lower light levels, although brighter indirect light encourages better flowering. The supplied plant comes in a 15 cm nursery pot.

Safety Note: Peace Lily contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals and is harmful if eaten by people or pets. Keep the plant away from children, cats, and dogs, and wear gloves when pruning.

Note: The stated 15 cm measurement refers to the nursery pot diameter, not the plant’s total height. White flower spathes naturally develop pale green tones as they mature. The supplied plant may vary slightly in height, flower count, shape, and fullness due to natural growth and seasonal availability.
