💡 Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my Peace Lily drooping even after watering?▼
Peace Lilies are dramatic -- they droop when thirsty as a survival reflex. Water thoroughly until it drains from the bottom, and it should perk back up within hours. If it stays droopy, check for root rot: a sour smell in the soil means rotting roots and you'll need to repot with fresh soil.
How often should I water a Peace Lily?▼
Water weekly, but let the top inch of soil dry out between waterings. In winter, reduce to every 10-14 days. Peace Lilies prefer consistent moisture but hate sitting in water -- always use a pot with drainage holes.
Why won't my Peace Lily flower?▼
Lack of flowers usually means insufficient light. Peace Lilies bloom best in bright indirect light -- a north or east-facing window is ideal. They can survive in low light but rarely flower there. Move to a brighter spot for a few weeks and you should see buds forming.
Can Peace Lilies grow in low light bathrooms?▼
Yes -- Peace Lilies are one of the best houseplants for bathrooms. They tolerate low light well and actually thrive in humid bathroom environments. Just make sure there is some ambient window or artificial light.
Why do the tips of my Peace Lily leaves turn brown?▼
Brown tips are typically caused by dry air or fluoride in tap water. Use filtered or distilled water, and boost humidity with a pebble tray or humidifier. Mist the leaves regularly or group with other plants to create a more humid microclimate.
