About Daniel Peace Lily
The peace lily is a popular, elegant plant and not actually a lily at all! In fact, theyâre more closely related to other houseplants like pothos and Monstera than actual lilies. The white âflowersâ are also not flowers, but specialized leaves that protect the tiny blossoms on the stalk in the center. Their âflowersâ may last as long as two months and they will continue to rebloom over time in the right conditions. âŽď¸
