Description
Spathiphyllum; commonly called Peace or Prayer Lily Plant. First came to Europe after discovery by Gustav Wallis in the Colombian jungle in 1824. Peace Lily is the Latin name of S. Wallis.
Its enduring popularity means it can be found in almost every shop that sells houseplants. In fact we'd go as far as saying it's likely one of the top five most popular houseplants.
Peace or Prayer Lily originally discovered flourishing beneath the Colombian rain forest cannot handle direct sunlight. It's leaves will turn toward the source of light. Full sun will burn the leaves and it will not survive.
