Peace lilies will thrive with 1 simple trick that takes just seconds

Peace Lilies are a popular plant that is much loved by many gardeners because they make a stunning fixture as houseplants. The species thrives when receiving indirect light and can be hydrated by being placed in steamy bathrooms and kitchens. Lightly watering the lily when the top inch of soil feels dry also helps with steady growth but there is one tip in particular, that will help the plant flourish.

According to experts at PatchPlant, if you cant put your peace lilies in a bathroom or kitchen, you can "pop them near other plants." The website added: "As a group, they'll create their own microclimate - that's smart."

Peace lilies (Spathiphyllum wallisii) are popular houseplants with distinctive white flower-like spathes that stand above the glossy tropical foliage and add an elegant look to any space. These plants are members of the arum family and, like many of their relatives, are poisonous, so keep them out of reach of children and pets.

Peace lilies are most at home in the South American rainforest, where they receive constant drips of rainwater and sporadic sunlight from the canopies above.

Wiping leaves with a damp cloth will get rid of dust and help improve Photosynthesis. This is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria use sunlight, water and carbon dioxcide to create their own food.

According to Patch Plants, there are several ways you can help peace lilies prosper. If you are in a comfortable temperature, there is a good chance that your plant will also be comfortable and it is recommended that you feed with liquid fertiliser a few times a year.

One tip that will see your plant thrive is repoting in spring using houseplant compost. This will give your lily room to grow and also jumpstart their growth as it adapts to their new environment.

Peace lilies are a pretty-looking plant that has a strong following amongst Brits who like a plant they can keep inside the house.

In popular culture, the peace lily's white flowers are seen as a symbol of peace, and its elegant appearance showcases purity and harmony. They are often gifted as a symbol of good fortune, are used as funeral flowers due to their sentimentality and low-maintenance nature, and are sometimes portrayed online as "drama queen" plants for their tendency to droop dramatically when thirsty but tend to recover quickly after watering.

The plant is featured on the set of Friends in the background of the coffee shop, Central Perk. It also makes an appearance in the comedy Big Bang Theory when Leonard and Sheldon receive a peace lily as a gift from their friend Penny.

The peace lily is often included as an in-game decorative object to improve a Sim's "environment" score in the hit video game franchise, The Sims, which affects their mood and well-being.
