Gertens Peace Lily

Yes, it is widely considered one of the most forgiving houseplants. It is highly adaptable to low-light environments and will visibly droop when it needs water, acting as a helpful reminder for busy owners.

While it thrives in low light, it still requires some ambient light to remain healthy. A room with no windows or natural light source is not suitable; however, it will do perfectly well in a corner away from direct sun or in a room with only north-facing windows.

No, the Peace Lily is toxic to both cats and dogs if ingested. It contains insoluble calcium oxalates which can cause irritation to the mouth, tongue, and throat, so it is best kept in a location inaccessible to pets.

The soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Check the top inch of soil; if it feels dry to the touch, it is time to water. If the leaves begin to droop, the plant is telling you it is thirsty and will typically perk back up shortly after watering.

Peace Lilies typically bloom from early spring through early summer. While the white hooded flowers are long-lasting, they are seasonal, so expect the plant to focus on its lush green foliage during the cooler months.
