Spathiphyllum
The peace lily combines glossy deep-green leaves with elegant white blooms, and it's one of the best plants for genuinely low-light rooms. It even tells you when it's thirsty by drooping dramatically — then perks back up within hours of watering.
Peace lilies love the humidity of the rainy season and tolerate air-conditioned interiors, making them a favourite for homes, hotels, and offices from Lagos to Jos.
Light
Low to medium indirect light. Direct sun scorches the leaves.
Water
Weekly, or whenever the leaves start to droop.
Soil
Rich, moisture-retentive potting mix with good drainage.
Pro tip
Mist the leaves or group with other plants to keep humidity up during harmattan.
