General Care Instructions:
Light: Spathyphyllium plants can tolerate low light conditions, but with limited light they are unlikely to re-flower. The plant enjoys indirect light.
Water: Water your plant 1-2 times a week, depending on how drafty the environment is or the time of year. Generally the plant may require more water in summer versus winter. The leaves tend to bow down when it is underwatered. Ensure the plant does not sit in water and is well drained.
Notes: Large plants will benefit from having their leaves wiped down regularly.
