Exposure & location

The Spathiphyllum Sweet Silvana likes Partial shade and tolerates low-light spaces well. Avoid direct sunlight which burns its delicate leaves and reduces flowering.

• Exposure: Partial shade to bright shade.
• Ideal: living room, bedroom, bright bathroom, or office away from windows.

Verdeia tip: to promote abundant flowering, maintain consistently high humidity and stable temperature.

Watering & care

• Watering: regular; keep the substrate slightly moist without ever soaking it.
• Drainage: essential to avoid root rot — use a pot with drainage holes.
• Humidity: prefers 60-70% humidity; regularly mist the foliage.
• Fertilizer: every 2-3 weeks in spring and summer, with diluted liquid fertilizer.
