'My peace lily didn't flower in five years but 13p kitchen scrap made it bloom' Peace lilies are renowned for their white or cream-coloured flowers, with healthy mature plants typically producing one to two blooms.
They suggest that a lack of potassium could prevent a peace lily from flowering, but this can be remedied by using a potassium-rich fertiliser or adding banana peels or eggshells to the soil.
The trick likely works because banana peels provide vital nutrients for the plant, including potassium, which experts at Lawn say is crucial for flower production.
But it's not just about feeding your peace lily the right nutrients, there are other conditions you need to meet to ensure it flowers.
But one green-fingered enthusiast believes she's found a way to speed up the process, using a common kitchen scrap item.
