Plant personality

Useful traits

Air-purifyingFloweringStatement leavesCompactCommon in IndiaAraceae family

Peace lily is not a true Lilium lily, but it is still unsafe to chew because of calcium oxalate crystals.

Its white showy part is a spathe around a spadix, typical of Araceae.

Leaves often droop when thirsty, which makes water stress easy to notice.
