Although peace lilies (spathiphyllum) are usually easy to care for, owners of these houseplants should provide them with proper lighting and humidity.

Otherwise, they run the risk of growing a weak, dull plant that won't bloom well and look healthy on your windowsill. In general, everything depends entirely on the care of the spathiphyllum, especially on the frequency of watering, OBOZ.UA writes.

So, the golden rule, according to experts, is that you should monitor the condition of the plant. It will tell you when to water it and how much.

Peace lilies usually need watering only when the topsoil is dry to the touch.

If you notice that the leaves of a peace lily are starting to fall off, it means that it is thirsty and you can spray it to keep it hydrated. In winter it is important not to overdo it, but in summer you can do it more abundantly.

Where to put the spathiphyllum

Peace lilies can tolerate different levels of light, making them ideal for most places in your home, but they do best in bright, indirect light.

A lighted bathroom is the perfect place for these flowers because they love moist air. Most bathrooms have frosted glass, which creates optimal conditions for these elegant flowers. Glass transmits light, reducing the amount of light.

Another advantage is that they do not need to be watered as often if they are in the bathroom.
