What Is A Little Angel Peace Lily?

The little angel peace lily is a dwarf variety of the common peace lily. Its appearance is the same as the standard variety, sporting dark green foliage, and pure white flowers, but its size is much smaller, and the plant is more compact.

Another feature that sets the little angel variety apart is its ability to bloom more frequently than other peace lily types.

Where Can You Buy A Little Angel Peace Lily?

Peace lilies can be purchased from most home and garden stores, including Walmart, Ace Hardware, Home Depot, and Lowes. However, finding the specific little angel variety may not be as easy as finding the standard kind.

Try looking at your local nursery and inquiring on Facebook Marketplace for those in your area who may be looking to sell one. Since little angel peace lilies are frequently split to help keep their compact size, someone you know who owns one may be able to give you a propagate of their plant without sacrificing their peace lily.

There are also plenty of specialty plant websites from which you can purchase a little angel peace lily. Additionally, you may be able to find one on Amazon or Etsy.

How Do You Take Care Of A Little Angel Peace Lily?

Little angel peace lilies are naturally tropical plants, thriving in warm, humid conditions. Therefore, these houseplants should be kept at a temperature range of 68 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit (20 to 30 degrees Celsius) and lightly misted to aid with humidity preferences.

Little angel peace lilies require soil with excellent drainage, but the soil must also retain adequate moisture so they do not dry up. A potting mix of pine bark, peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite is an ideal soil composition for water retention without the risk of root rot and mold.

You should fertilize your little angel peace lily every six weeks during the growing season. Your little angel peace lily should only need pruning when there are dead or dying leaves and flowers.

Propagation may be more frequent for this variety to keep its compact size and encourage the constant flowering for which it is famous.

Little angel peace lilies do not need to be placed in windows since they require indirect sunlight, and even fluorescent light might suffice if housed in a windowless room. Be sure to hang a gauze curtain if you do place it in a window to avoid direct sunlight since it can scorch your little angel peace lily.

Final Words

Little angel peace lilies are a dwarf variety of the common peace lily, which sport the same green leaves and white flowers but bloom more often and come in a convenient compact size for tabletop placement. While you may be able to find little angel peace lilies at big box stores, you will probably have better luck at a local nursery, Facebook Marketplace, Etsy, or Amazon.

Like other peace lily varieties, little angel peace lilies require indirect sunlight, adequate watering, well-drained soil, and biweekly fertilizing. Propagation of this variety may be more often to keep its compact size.
