Peace Lily - Spathiphyllum wallisii
The iconic white bloom of the Peace Lily is thought to symbolize the white flags of a ceasefire, giving it its peaceful name. Known for its impressive air-purifying qualities, it helps remove toxins like formaldehyde, ammonia, and carbon monoxide from the air. The flowers are actually specialized leaves called bracts. Native to South America, the Peace Lily belongs to the same family as the Flamingo Flower.
