How to read these values
These care values are quick reference points for indoor growing. Use them as a guide, then adjust for pot size, substrate, temperature and how quickly the substrate dries.
For more detail, read the full product description or visit our Plant Care Guides.
- Light: level and approximate lux at leaf level.
- Watering: “% dry” shows how far the substrate should dry before watering again.
- Substrate: structure, drainage, moisture retention, base material and particle size.
- Temperature: “Ideal” shows the preferred range; “Avoid below” marks the cold-stress threshold.
- Humidity: target range; steady conditions usually matter more than exact numbers.
- Growth habit: how the plant grows, such as upright, climbing, trailing, clumping or rosette-forming.
- Support: whether a stake, pole or trellis is needed, optional or unnecessary.
- Growth speed: expected pace under suitable indoor conditions; use as a guide, not a promise.
- Max size indoors: realistic long-term indoor size under good conditions.
- Toxicity & safety: irritation, toxicity or physical hazards such as spines or bristles.
- Origin & habitat: native range, hybrid background or typical habitat where relevant.
- Outdoor growing: when a potted indoor plant can be placed outside and what outdoor protection it needs.
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta'
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' is a larger Sweet-series peace lily with dark glossy leaves, long petioles and white cupped spathes. The plant forms a tall basal clump with foliage and inflorescences rising clearly above the container.
Mature plants carry narrow elliptic to narrow ovate leaves on long petioles. The white spathes can have a sweet fragrance when open, adding another detail to its full, upright growth.
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' profile
- Plant type: Cultivated Spathiphyllum hybrid cultivar in the Araceae family.
- Foliage: Large dark green glossy leaves with a smooth, slightly leathery surface.
- Flowers: White cupped spathes with a large central spadix.
- Growth habit: Upright to broad-upright basal clump with long petioles.
- Scale: Taller growth, long petioles and larger leaves build a full container-grown clump.
- Light: Bright filtered light encourages stronger flowering and shorter, steadier growth.
- Watering: Even moisture keeps large leaves from drooping between waterings.
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' foliage and flowering
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' develops its size through a dense root system and long petioles rising from the base. The leaves are narrow elliptic to narrow ovate, glossy and dark green, giving the clump a tall indoor profile as it matures.
The inflorescences sit above the foliage on long peduncles. Each white cupped spathe surrounds a central spadix, where the true flowers are arranged.
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' care details
- Light: Place in bright indirect light; direct sun can scorch glossy leaves and mark the spathes.
- Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity keeps large leaves smoother and reduces dry edges.
- Water: Water when the upper part of the mix has dried, then let excess water drain away.
- Substrate: Use an airy, moisture-retentive mix with fine bark, coco fibre, perlite and a small amount of composted material.
- Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C, with protection from cold draughts.
- Repotting: Repot one size up when the rootball is tight; a large wet pot can slow roots and trigger rot.
- Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth, especially when the plant is producing new leaves and spathes.
- Propagation: Propagate by division of established clumps during repotting.
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' issue checks
- Drooping leaves: Large leaves collapse quickly when the rootball dries too far.
- Brown edges: Dry air, irregular watering or direct sun can mark the leaf margins.
- Yellowing leaves: A wet, cool root zone can damage roots and lower foliage.
- Few spathes: Low light usually gives leafy growth with fewer inflorescences.
- Aging flowers: White spathes naturally fade through greenish and brown tones before removal.
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' safety
Spathiphyllum 'Sweet Lauretta' contains calcium oxalate crystals. Chewing leaves or stems can irritate the mouth and throat, so keep the plant away from pets and small children.
