How to care for Peace lilly to keep looks nice?



To keep your peace lily look nice, there are several things that we can do.


1. Keep the soil moist but do not overwater.

To make sure the plant is not sitting on the water, better to have well drainage whole pot.



2. Positioning Plant


it is true that peace lily can handle shady areas. however, if you want to enjoy the beautiful flowers of this plant (which is lasting around 2 months..!) give them a well-lit sunlight position.
