Why does the flower on peace lily turn brown
Am I supposed to cut the brown leaves off or just left them fall off?
This is an easy plant; you’ll do great!
This plant likes to be evenly moist but lets the top layer of soil dry out a bit between waterings. If it’s droopy, it means it’s pretty thirsty. If you go too long without watering it, you’ll see yellowing leaves that eventually die off. I have 2 of these; one is about 12 feet away from a south-facing window and gets indirect bright sunlight (it’s a big window). The other is in a darker west-facing window, but that room has grow lights. They are both thriving; just keep them away from the direct sun.

I have had a peace lilly for 24 years. All of a sudden it is totally drooping I don’t know what to do.
My lilly looks like someone took a bit out of one of the leaves. I can't see any bugs on the plant, what can cause this.
When A Peace Lily Is Over 1 Year Old, I'm Fixing To Repot, But Do You Cut Back The Huge Leaves Or Leave. Very Couriuos
Thank You

My Peace lilies are growing well. But these don't flower much. I see tiny green or pale flowers once in a while. They are kept in shade with bright light. I water them 2 times a week.
Pls guide.
Hi Farzana,
It sounds like you should increase the amount of light your peace lily receives. While you do not want to put your plant in direct sunlight, peace lilies thrive when it receives lots of bright, indirect sunlight. Try moving it to a place that is brighter and out of the shade, but won’t be in direct sun.
Also, make sure you are not giving it too much water. You want to soil to be moist to the touch, but not oversaturated. And if you did not fertilize this year, begin fertilizing in late winter with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer. You should add fertilizer two or three times during the active growing season (about every 6 weeks).
