peace lily
Shady indoor flower
Peace lily is a tropical houseplant with glossy dark green leaves and distinctive white flower-like spathes.
Despite the name, it's not a true lily.
Peace lilies are popular for low-light spaces and air purification: The peace lily in the corner is the only plant I haven't killed.
They droop dramatically when thirsty but recover quickly after watering.
