2. Water Right – Not Too Much, Not Too Little
Peace lilies hate soggy soil, but wilt dramatically when thirsty.
Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out between waterings
Always use a pot with drainage holes — never let it sit in standing water
✅ Pro tip: Water when the leaves droop slightly — they’ll perk up afterward. This is your plant’s natural signal!
3. Boost Humidity (They Love Moist Air)
Native to tropical rainforests, peace lilies thrive in high humidity (50–60%).
Low humidity leads to brown leaf tips and fewer blooms.
✅ Easy ways to increase humidity:
Place on a pebble tray with water
Group with other plants
Use a small humidifier
Mist the leaves occasionally (not a full substitute for humidity)
4. Feed It (But Don’t Overdo It)
Peace lilies benefit from light feeding to support flowering.
Use a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10 or 20-20-20)
Feed every 6–8 weeks during spring and summer
Stop feeding in fall and winter
