How do I take care of a peace lily plant?

Our Advice:

The peace lily (Spathyphyllum wallisii) prefers bright light, but not direct sun. The white flowers turn green if it is too dark or scorch and turn brown along the edges if the light is too bright. The plant will tell you when it needs re-potting as you will see roots emerge from the pot. Water regularly and feed once a month with a houseplant fertiliser from March to September.
