Description
🌿 Spathiphyllum wallisii 'Diamond', commonly known as the Diamond Peace Lily, is an elegant and sophisticated variety of the beloved Peace Lily. With its striking glossy leaves and pristine white blooms, this plant brings a sense of tranquility and style to any indoor space. It's part of the Spathiphyllum genus, which is renowned for its air-purifying qualities and its ability to thrive in low-light environments.
🍃 The foliage of the 'Diamond' variety is particularly noteworthy. The leaves are broad, glossy, and deep green, with a smooth texture that gives the plant a vibrant, healthy appearance. What sets it apart from other Peace Lilies is the shine of the leaves, almost like a jewel, which gives it its "Diamond" name. These glossy leaves create a beautiful contrast with the pure white flowers that bloom periodically throughout the year.
🌸 Flowering is one of the highlights of the Spathiphyllum wallisii 'Diamond'. It produces striking white spathes (modified leaves) that surround a central spadix. The blooms typically appear in spring and summer, though with proper care, it may flower intermittently throughout the year. The flowers are not just visually appealing; they have a subtle, delicate fragrance, making them a delightful addition to any room.
📏 In terms of size, this variety generally grows to about 40 cm in height, which makes it perfect for tabletops, desks, or small corners. While it doesn’t grow excessively tall, its elegant foliage and flowers give it a strong presence without taking up too much space.
💧 Care for the Diamond Peace Lily is relatively simple, making it a great choice for both beginner and seasoned plant lovers. It thrives in medium to low indirect light, though it can tolerate some direct sunlight for short periods. Avoid placing it in full sun, as the leaves can scorch.
🌱 Watering is a breeze as well. This plant prefers to be kept consistently moist, but not soggy. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out between waterings, and always ensure that the pot has good drainage to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom. In the winter months, you may want to water less frequently, as it will not be actively growing as much.
⚠️ Note: Toxicity – It’s important to note that, like other varieties of Spathiphyllum, Spathiphyllum 'Diamond' is toxic to pets if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation to the mouth, throat, and digestive system of cats, dogs, and other animals. Keep it out of reach of curious pets and children.
🪴 Format: Upon delivery, the plant has a height of approximately 40 cm (measured including the pot). It is supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 12 cm.
