How often should you water a Peace Lily?

Keep lightly moist; dramatic wilt = water now. That is the single thing most likely to kill it — more houseplants die from the watering can than from anything else. In PlantRx, saving this plant to your garden turns that line into a dated reminder that shifts with your local forecast.

How much light does a Peace Lily need?

Medium indirect; blooms more with brighter light. Keep the soil (rich, moisture-retentive mix) and humidity (medium–high) matched to that, and hold the room between 64–81°F.

Is Peace Lily safe for cats and dogs?

Toxic to pets if chewed. PlantRx gives three separate verdicts — people, dogs and cats — on every plant it reads. This is general guidance, not veterinary advice: if an animal or child has eaten any part of a plant, call a vet or a poison line rather than relying on an app.

Grower's note

It tells you when it's thirsty — leaves droop, then bounce back within hours of watering.

Not sure what you're holding?

PlantRx identifies a plant from a photo, scores its health out of 100 and builds the care schedule for you — including watering reminders adjusted to your local weather.
