Peace Lily soil and repotting

An evenly moist, airy mix for a plant that hates drying out.

Peace lilies grow on damp rainforest floors and wilt quickly when dry. Coco coir holds moisture while perlite keeps air around the roots, so the mix stays damp without going sour.

Repot every 1 to 2 years in spring, when water runs straight through or roots circle the pot.
