Abstract
A Spathiphyllum plant named `Jungfrau` characterized by its miniature growth habit, satin texture foliage, and oblong white spathes. Plants of `Jungfrau` grow very quickly to marketable size, bloom and re-bloom quickly, and are adaptable to a variety of pot sizes from 6 cm through 20 cm. Plants of `Jungfrau` are responsive to growth regulators used to induce uniform flowering and branching, and are more resistant to common soil-borne pathogens than plants of comparison cultivar `Petite`. These combined characteristics make `Jungfrau` a unique new cultivar.
