How To Get Your Peace Lily To Flower More – Expert Tips for Lush Blooms (Page 2 ) | November 18, 2025
- Peace lilies thrive in medium to bright indirect light
- Too little light = lush leaves, no flowers
- Too much direct sun = scorched leaves
✅ Best spot: Near an east-facing window or a north-facing window with sheer curtains
✅ Sign of good light: Leaves are vibrant green, not dark or yellow
💡 Rotate the pot weekly for even growth.
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
- Use a pot with drainage holes — never let it sit in water
✅ Pro tip: Water when the leaves droop slightly — then perk up after watering (a natural signal!).
3. Boost Humidity (They Love Moist Air)
- Native to tropical rainforests, peace lilies love high humidity (50–60%)
- Low humidity = brown leaf tips and fewer blooms
✅ Easy fixes:
- Place on a pebble tray with water
- Group with other plants
- Use a small humidifier
- Mist leaves occasionally (not a substitute for humidity)
4. Feed It (But Don’t Overdo It)
- Peace lilies need light feeding to support flowers
- 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 in fall and winter
✅ Tip: Dilute to half-strength — peace lilies are sensitive to salt buildup.
5. Keep It Warm (No Cold Drafts!)
- Ideal temperature: 65–80°F (18–27°C)
- Avoid cold windows, AC vents, or drafty doors
- Cold stress = no flowering and leaf damage
✅ Keep away from drafty areas — especially in winter.
6. Repot When Root-Bound (But Not Too Soon)
