When potting up a Peace Lily, use a potting mix that drains well.
In NASCAR racing, a white flag tells drivers that there is one more lap to go. In battle, the white flag is the international sign of surrender or truce, and the white flag is carried by diplomats, meaning they come in peace. So, when explorers to Colombia found a plant waving a pure white flag, it quickly became known as the Peace Lily. The plant s “flag” is actually a spathe, or leaf-like bract that hides the true flower of a plant, in this case the tiny, unremarkable flowers of Spathiphyllum wallisii.
