How to Grow & Care

Spathiphyllum ‘Sweet Isabella’ is one of the easiest houseplants to grow — tolerant, forgiving, and rewarding with elegant blooms.

• Light:

  • Thrives in bright, indirect light.

  • Will also tolerate partial shade but flowers less in low light.

  • Avoid harsh direct sunlight which can scorch leaves.

• Temperature:

  • Prefers 18–24 °C (65–75 °F).

  • Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 13 °C (55 °F).

• Watering:

  • Keep compost evenly moist, allowing the top few centimetres to dry between waterings.

  • Reduce watering slightly in winter.

  • Peace Lilies dislike sitting in water — ensure the pot has good drainage.

• Humidity:

  • Loves humidity. Mist occasionally or place the pot on a pebble tray with water, especially in heated rooms.

• Feeding:

  • Feed every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertiliser.

  • Reduce or stop feeding in winter.

• Repotting:

  • Repot every 1–2 years in spring using a quality peat-free houseplant compost.

  • Choose a pot just one size larger than the previous to avoid over-watering issues.

• Pruning & cleaning:

  • Remove spent blooms and yellow leaves to encourage new growth.

  • Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to keep them glossy and dust-free.
