Repotting a Spathe Flower
I have a spathe flower (spathiphyllum) in my office that has quadrupled in
size in the past year and a half. It flowered for the first time a few months ago. Early last fall I re-potted it in a pretty clay pot (it had been in a plastic pot). Now it seems to require more frequent watering, possibly because of the porus pot. Also, the plant has lost it's nice shape and is growing irregularly since the re-potting. Is the irregular growth typical of this type of plant as it matures? Would you recommend against a plastic pot for any reason? Also, I'm thinking if I get a plastic pot that's deep that may help the plant from drooping (of course being dry is likely the cause of the drooping). The plant is in my office and even after Friday afternoon waterings, it's staring to droop by Monday morning. Can't move the plant home because of the cats (I'm concerned about the flower's irritants to the skin & mucous membranes). Thanks in advance for any advice. |
