    Your plant is a Peace Lily Miss Lily.
    Very appropriate because of your user name don't you think? :-D

    Oh, what a sweet coincidence :)
    Thank you for your answer, eileen.
    Is Peace Lily from the family of spathiphyllums?

    Aglaonema modestum. Is this the same plant from the other forum? Welcome to 'stew! Nice cache pot, BTW.

    Yes it is. It's Latin name is Spathiphyllum 'Lynise'
    I have two and they flower beautifully for me every year. Be careful though not to get the pollen on your clothing as it can be hard to shift.

    I think Aglaonema modestum is the right name; purpleinopp , thank you. And yes, this is the same plant.

    I also have the Spathiphyllum 'Lynise' and they are very similar.

    Thanks to you both!

    Glad to share info. Oops clicked submit instead of preview before adding a pic. Here's a pic of the back of A. modestum leaves, and stem, to compare.
