Spathiphyllum variegata

Spathiphyllum Variegata, often referred to as the Variegated Peace Lily, is an elegant indoor plant known for its distinctive and attractive foliage. 

• Appearance: This plant features glossy, dark green leaves adorned with striking creamy white or yellow variegation. The variegated patterns can vary, creating a unique and eye-catching appearance. The leaves have a lush, tropical look that adds visual interest to any space.

• Flowers: Spathiphyllum Variegata produces delicate, white spathes (modified leaves) and creamy white calla-like flowers. These blooms are held above the foliage on tall stems and provide a beautiful contrast to the variegated leaves.

• Size: Typically, it grows to about 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) in height and width, making it suitable for desks, tabletops, or as a focal point in indoor plant arrangements.

• Light Requirements: It thrives in low to medium, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, so it’s best placed in bright, filtered light or shaded areas.

• Soil: Prefers well-draining, rich potting soil. A mix of peat, perlite, and pine bark is ideal to ensure good aeration and moisture retention.

• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. This plant is sensitive to overwatering, so proper drainage is essential.

• Humidity: Enjoys high humidity, so regular misting or placing the plant on a humidity tray can help maintain its lush appearance.

• Temperature: It thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing it to drafts or sudden temperature changes.

Spathiphyllum Variegata is highly valued for its stunning foliage, elegant blooms, and air-purifying properties, making it a popular choice for enhancing indoor spaces.
