Lilies are perhaps the most elegant of house plants, and this is equally true of the green Peace Lily, although they aren't actually lilies. These white cups surrounding tubular flower clusters grow out of green stems. Over time the protective cup turns green or yellow. The green Peace Lily is actually a genus in the family of Araceae, officially called a Spathiphyllum. Sometimes people call it a Spath, Spathe, or Snow Flower. Whatever you call them, they are wonderful additions to any desk and are easy to care for if you are sending them to someone. As a bonus, NASA has discovered that they are particularly good at cleaning the air. With all this going for it, it isn't any wonder that flower shops in Pasadena TX carry the Fall Peace Lily bouquet. 

Care For Pasadena, TX's Spathiphyllum

Spathiphyllum likes low light and relatively warm temperatures. If you can keep them from any temperature below 55 degrees Fahrenheit, they will appreciate it. They also like water. You don't want your soil, which should be rich in nutrients, to completely dry out. Mist regularly during the summer and a little less regularly in the winter.

Watering is a bit of a balancing act. The soil should drain well and the roots should never sit in puddles, or else the leaves will go black. 

To keep the blooms going, pinch off any blooms that die.
