Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi'

Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi' is a medium-sized peace lily with glossy green leaves and white spathes produced from a full basal clump. Its medium growth gives the plant a balanced leaf-to-pot proportion.

The leaves are lance-shaped to elliptic and rise from the crown on petioles. Under bright indirect light and steady moisture, white spathes can appear above the foliage, each surrounding a central spadix.

Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi' plant profile

• Plant type: Cultivated Spathiphyllum in the Araceae family.
• Foliage: Glossy green leaves with a clean lance-shaped to elliptic outline.
• Flowers: White spathes with a central spadix under good indoor care.
• Growth habit: Medium basal clump with a balanced upright spread.
• Scale: Medium growth gives the plant a balanced leaf-to-pot proportion.
• Watering: Even moisture keeps the clump from wilting between waterings.
• Light: Bright indirect light gives stronger flowering than deeper shade.

Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi' clump development

Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi' grows through steady crown expansion, with new leaves emerging from the base. The plant keeps a balanced medium outline when the potting mix stays evenly moist and the light is bright but filtered.

Its white spathes are modified bracts around the spadix. Once a spathe ages and loses its pale colour, the old inflorescence can be cut near the base.

Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi' care checklist

• Light: Grow in bright indirect light or gentle partial shade; direct sun can scorch foliage.
• Water: Water when the upper part of the mix has dried, then allow the pot to drain fully.
• Substrate: Use an airy, moisture-retentive mix with fine bark, coco fibre and perlite.
• Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity keeps leaf edges and new growth tidier.
• Temperature: Keep warm and stable, ideally above 18 °C.
• Repotting: Repot one size up when the rootball fills the pot.
• Propagation: Propagate by division of established clumps.
• Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth, especially when new leaves and spathes are forming.

Spathiphyllum 'Vivaldi' troubleshooting

• Reduced flowering: Very low light usually gives fewer spathes.
• Drooping leaves: A dry rootball can make the foliage collapse quickly.
• Yellowing foliage: Saturated substrate can damage roots, especially in cooler conditions.
• Brown tips: Dry air, inconsistent watering or mineral-heavy water can mark the leaf ends.
• Green aging spathes: Older spathes naturally change colour before they are removed.
