Peace Lily in Terracotta Cylinder

At Planterie, we give every plant a healthy start by potting it in the right soil mix. So your plant comes healthy. If you get just a few basics right, it will thrive.

Where to keep it?

Peace lilies do best in bright shade. Too much sun burns; too little light reduces flowering.

• Best spot: Window Light (bright near a window, light filtered via glass/curtain).
• It can also do well in Away from Window Light (it will stay healthy, but may flower less).
• Avoid Direct Sunlight for long hours.

How much watering?

The most common issue is letting it dry out fully, repeatedly (it droops a lot when thirsty). The other mistake is keeping it constantly wet. Aim for steady moisture.

• Touch the soil and push your finger 1 inch deep.
• If it feels even slightly moist, don’t water.
• If it feels dry, water thoroughly until water drains from the bottom.
• In summers: usually 1–2 times a week
• In winters: usually once a week (Always follow the finger-test over the calendar.)

Other care tips

• Drooping usually means it’s thirsty—water, and it often perks up in a few hours.
• Wipe the leaves once in a while so dust doesn’t block light.
