The correct name for this flower is spathiphyllum, and it grows naturally in South America, near water bodies. Therefore, in order for the plant to feel "at home", and, accordingly, to bloom, the air in the room must be warm and sufficiently humid.
Although the spathiphyllum is quite unpretentious, it is still worth adhering to some points in caring for it.
In order for the plant to begin to bloom, it is necessary to provide the most important conditions for its growth and development. This is sufficient, but not excessive, the amount of light, the desired air temperature, watering, fertilizing. And now - in more detail about each of these points.
Spathiphyllum "Women's Happiness" loves the light, but you should avoid direct sunlight on the flower, especially in the summer. You can place a pot with a plant on the windowsill of the north window. If the spathiphyllum is to be on the south window, on fine days it is blocked with a thin sheet of paper, tulle, gauze. You can also place it on a table or shelf - not far from the window.
The plant will endure the lack of light, but at the same time its appearance may change for the worse: the spathiphyllum will become smaller, and its flowering will stop.
The best place for a flower pot is by a window facing east.
Temperature and Humidity
With regard to temperature, "Women's Happiness" is by no means capricious. It is optimal if the air is warmed up to + 20-25 C. But even on hot summer days, the plant will feel good, it will withstand + 30-35 C.
As for winter, the room can be quite cool + 15-18 C. A natural decrease in air temperature in winter also occurs in the homeland of spathiphyllum. It is important that the room was not lower than + 15 C.
Humidity is of secondary importance if Women's Happiness is properly watered. And yet, if the air in the room is too dry (this is especially common in the winter season when the central heating is on), the batteries can be covered with a dense damp cloth and changed as it dries.
Watering and spraying
Like other indoor plants, it is undesirable to water the spathiphyllum with tap water that has just been drawn from the tap. Water is preliminarily defended (during this process, chlorine harmful to flowers comes out of it), warmed to room temperature.
Those who live in environmentally friendly areas can use rain or melt water for irrigation. Another option is to pass the water through a filter.
In summer, spathiphyllum is watered after 1-2 days, depending on the air temperature. In winter, watering is carried out less often: once every 7-10 days.
There is a sure sign that the plant needs to be “watered” immediately. In this case, his leaves begin to fall.
If the owners have to leave for a few days, and there is no one to look after the flowers, pallets containing pots can become a way out. They are filled to the brim with water.
Spathiphyllum leaves also require care: they must be periodically wiped with a damp cloth, or sprayed from a special small spray bottle. It is important that direct sunlight does not fall on wet leaves - this can cause them to burn.
Necessary for "Women's happiness" mixture and top dressing
Since the spathiphyllum blooms from about April to October, the main feeding is carried out at this time, about once a month. You can use any commercially available houseplant fertilizer and apply it as directed. At the same time, it is advisable to alternate mineral fertilizers with organic ones.
In winter, during the dormant period, "Women's Happiness" does not need to be fed.
Once every 3-4 years, the flower is transplanted into a pot, slightly larger in volume. This is a very important point. It must be remembered that the spathiphyllum will not bloom until its roots braid the entire soil. Therefore, the size of the new pot should not be excessively large.
As for the soil itself and the transplantation process, the following rules must be followed:
- it is best to transplant the plant in the spring, when it has not yet entered the flowering phase;
- peat, humus and earth should be mixed in equal proportions. You can add some river sand. The optimal ratio is 2:2:2:1;
- as a drainage, bark, sawdust, charcoal are placed on the bottom of the pot;
- spathiphyllum is desirable to transplant along with a clod of earth, which is entwined with roots.
For some time, a transplanted flower should not be placed in a highly lit place.
As you can see, caring for the "Women's Happiness" flower is quite simple.
You can buy spathiphyllum in almost every store selling indoor flowers. As a rule, they try to put it up for sale at the most “winning” time, when the plant blooms.
But “Women's Happiness” has found a new owner, and does not want to bloom next year.
What could be the reasons for this?
- pot too big. In this case, flowers will appear when the roots "master" all the new space;
- insufficient watering - the leaves wither, and their tips dry up;
- excess moisture can lead to stagnation of water in the soil and rotting of the roots;
- Insect pests - aphids, spider mites - took over. It will be necessary to treat the plant with special preparations;
- mineral imbalance: Spathiphyllum not only refuses to bloom, but its leaves begin to turn black, starting from the tips. If the plant has not been fertilized for a long time, it's time to do it. But don't overdo it! Too concentrated fertilizers can also be harmful.
- the soil is not well compacted. In this case, even young leaves develop poorly, to say nothing of the appearance of flowers!
- hypothermia: a rare reason for the lack of flowering in houseplants, but it happens. For example, if the pots are taken out to the balcony in early spring.
It is worth considering which of the above reasons may relate to a particular flower, and eliminate problems.
And finally, one more "secret" from experienced flower growers: as soon as the flowers "get old", the flower stalk should be cut closer to the root. Then the plant will not waste energy on maintaining the "life" of what has faded, and the new flowers will be large - on strong peduncles.
It is believed that "Women's Happiness" got its name for a reason - the plant brings peace and love to families. Whether this is so is difficult to say. But the fact that all household members will be pleased to look at the beautiful flowers is for sure.
May your "Women's Happiness" regularly please you with abundant flowering.
Many of us install indoor flowers to decorate rooms, purify and humidify the air. At the same time, according to popular signs, they normalize family relations.

After acquiring a pot of female happiness, you need to place it in a dark place. This will help the plant quickly adapt to new conditions. If the bush has already begun flowering, then such a requirement is mandatory.
It is also necessary to properly spray and fertilize. On the first day after the acquisition, the bush should be watered abundantly. The next day, you need to feed. Transplantation is carried out only after 10-14 days.

Care for indoor flower eucharis at home
Light in the room plays almost no role in the process of growing spathiphyllum. But you do not need to put the plant pot in direct sunlight or in a dark part of the room. The optimum temperature for a flower is approximately +15 °C in winter and +23 °C in summer.
Airing the room for a plant located on the windowsill is detrimental, and the heat of the battery can cause the foliage to darken. For this reason, the plant is not recommended to be kept on the window. If the apartment is small and there is no other place for the bush, then during ventilation you need to remove it from the windowsill.
Reproduction of spathiphyllum is carried out by rhizome. It is recommended to perform division in the spring just before flowering. To do this, the rhizome is taken out of the ground and divided into "daughter" processes. During the division, care must be taken, since if the root system is damaged, the bush will simply die.
During reproduction, one must not forget about the composition of the soil. The soil for spathiphyllum should consist of peat, sand, leaf and sod land in a ratio of 2: 1: 2: 1. You can enrich the soil with charcoal.
Do not plant plots in large pots, because in this case, nutrients and moisture will go to root development. As a result, the leaves will begin to wither, and flowering will not occur.
It should be borne in mind that spathiphyllum blooms only in spring. If the bush begins to produce only leaves, this means that the grower has made some mistakes. In order to make the spathiphyllum bloom, you must adhere to certain recommendations:

How to care for a flower of female happiness, so that it gives not only a gorgeous flowering, but also brings positive emotions into the house?
In principle, it is difficult to starve to death. A beautiful lush bush adapts to almost any conditions. Despite this, there are still some points that can have a negative impact on the plant. If you do not follow the recommendations, this can not only spoil its appearance, but deprive flower growers of the opportunity to admire the flowering. So, what do you need to know if a spathiphyllum has appeared in your flower collection? First of all, it concerns:
- flower conditions;
- care features (watering, fertilizing, transplanting).
Where to put a flowerpot with female happiness?
Spathiphyllum loves soft lighting, so the south windows are best left for other colors. In summer, the plant will feel good on the northern windowsill, but in winter it will be a little dark there.
From a lack of light, women's happiness will not disappear, but, and new leaves will grow small. Therefore, for a period when daylight is short, the pot must be rearranged to the east side. There is more sun, but at the same time there are no direct rays, from which ugly spots appear on the leaves.
As for the temperature, the spathiphyllum is a fairly resistant plant. It tolerates summer heat up to 35 degrees Celsius well, and in winter it will survive even at 15 degrees (but not lower).
Humidity is the only requirement for female happiness, especially if the air in the room is dry. To bring the conditions closer to natural, you need to regularly wipe the leaves with a damp sponge. You can also periodically spray them.
How to care for a flower female happiness?
Spathiphyllum in care will not cause much trouble, the main thing is not to forget about the flower and carry out such procedures in a timely manner:
- Watering. The flower loves water, so in the summer it needs to be “watered” every two days. You can water directly into the pot, but you need to try so that the jet does not hit the center of the bush. In winter, when the room becomes cool, such frequent watering is not needed and can even be harmful. During this period, it is enough to moisten the soil once a day.
- top dressing. In the nutritious land, women's happiness can grow even without fertilization. However, in order for the bush to develop and bloom more actively, it is advisable to make mineral complexes once a month. You can do this from mid-spring to mid-autumn.
- . Spathiphyllum does not like frequent relocations, so it is enough to replant a bush every three, in early spring. It is better to use the transshipment method, while the pot should not be too large.
In conclusion, I would like to add that female happiness blooms only when the roots grow and completely braid the entire earthen lump that is in the pot. Another plant does not like drafts, however, like other indoor pets. Otherwise, it is absolutely undemanding and can only give pleasure from the contemplation of delicate white bedspreads on a long peduncle among bright dense foliage.
