    I’ve had a Peace Lilly for 23 years. It was in one of those house warming baskets with other plants. I’ve only repotted it twice and have never fertilized it 😮😊. I’ve kept it together with a pothos and a Dieffenbachia (dumb cane) plant and it only blooms sporadically but mostly in the Spring and Summer. She is kept in the brightest room of the house. I feel pretty lucky not have any issues. 🤞🏼

(I only showered it) The plant grew so big, then it started blooming these long stems with white flowers with orange in the middle, the leaves were always green, it was beautiful!

    I followed your wonderful suggestion of getting rid of the bottom of the plants and my Peace Lily immediately thanked me with 5 blooms! My plant is 15 years old and huge- it took 2 of us to move it to the bedroom balcony to get the stones and bottom several inches off! This plant sits on the floor in front of a shuttered window that is tinted. I have the shutters open a few inches and it is happy being near the South facing window. I'm in Southern California. With our extreme heats I often tilt the shutters up to allow light but not the scorching heat of the sun to come in. I do not water unless the soil is dry 1 inch down

    You are at the top of your game here, very humorous. I've only ever kept these peace lilies alive, after being gifted one. But your green flowers/spathes are really cool, and I want that look. You should consider selling them as a new species. You give lots of valuable information here for many house plants. My favorite is using water conditioner which I began immediately after watching that video. Your humor and rare valuable green flowers make this video worth watching more than once.

    I always look forward to your fun & informative posts; learned a lot. You may have changed your advice since you posted this 5 years ago. In that case… sorry. But, at least for new listeners, I have to add this. With Peace Lilly’s, even in the healthiest plants, the pure white bloom ages. As it does it does, it greens, always. The high fertilizer and/ or low light can hasten it, but it will turn green. As for me, when mine are fully green, I pull the bloom downward & easily remove it. That leaves a new & interesting look to my plant for another week or 2. I’m leaving the center piece on the stem. It is lovely! When it shrivels, I cut the stem & wIt for new blooms. ❤️

    Peace Lily (AKA funeral plant) are my easiest plant. I keep them in a northern window or in fairly low light areas and only water when they start to droop. I also move my huge ones outside in summer. They just went through a week of 100°/37° with no issues. They bloom regularly with lovely white blooms. (It must be based on length of day as they all do it at about the same time.) One tip you didn't mention is that they like to be crowded in the pot. They don't bloom after repotting until they fill in.

    People make the mistake of buying this plant and then immediately repotting it into a pot too big for the root system. They like snug pots but people think 'I'll put it in this big pot so it can GROW'. But that gives it too much soil and takes too long to dry out = slow death.

    Gutted. I bought a peace lily just under a week ago because I heard they do quite well in low light. I just went and looked at it and yup, one of the flowers (whatever) is going green. Just moved it nearer the window and replaced the darker spot with a Devil's Ivy.
    I would say that most UK houses don't have a vast amount of light and you can't cram everything onto the windowsills.
    I move all of mine to the floor in front of the patio doors in the day but it's kind of weird - like you're taking them on a trip or something.
    I can tell you now though, if that plant starts playing up, it's out. I've got loads of others who will behave themselves so new peace lily, you have been warned!

    Look for self-watering pots with wicks to slurp up the water from a reservoir. My peace lilies are loving the pots I have them in. So much so that I had to divide them up. I got a set of 6 from that Amazon place and they've been brilliant. The only downside is lack of choice of design. Also, watering with rainwater will help with the brown tips.

    For years I resisted buying this plant as I knew nothing about it. Although I had a feeling those nice white blooms would not be re-blooming that much. One day while in the supermarket I saw they had ones in 4" pots and under $10 so I figured, why not. All was find for the first few months, but since they it's been a constant battle between blooms that rot before they open, black leaf ends and drooping leaves. I finally took it out of soil and put it in water. It was doing pretty well but I realize it hasn't really grown in all the time I've had it. While in water, it started out well. No more droopy leaves but also no blooms and the ends still turn black. No matter what "light" it is getting, it is not happy. I am kinda sick of it, TBH!

    My Peace Lilies never flower, sust a foliage plant. On ONE occasion one did, and it was kept in a low light place and rather forgotten, and the spathe was white. I find they don't like a lot of light personally, mine go yellow so I put them into medium light. The Chlorine tip is the best one though, I use API too Mr Sheffield ! 🌿

    Since I started using water conditioner for my maranta specifically, it's made a huge difference....everything else is wrong with my maranta lol, but no more brown tips. I don't have a peace lily but it sounds a lot like a maranta....its OK, my maranta and I will find common ground eventually. Lol. Also, I know it's a boring and silly thing to he excited about, but I LOVE the measuring cup on the top of my water conditioner. It's perfect for measuring both the conditioner and small batches of fertilized water...

    Excellent video! Thank you! I kind of like those green flowers! They look cool :) Mine gave me a single white bloom earlier this year, and it was beautiful! 😍 but it only lasted a few weeks and I thought I was doing something wrong but then I learned that the flowers die. I hope for more blooms next year.

    Yes, I was about to give up... all the tips are brown, drooping. Also I think I need to repot/ What soil? (I am new to plants!)

    Oh yes the peace lily, the most complicated house plant. I work in a garden centre and the peace Lilly is my biggest concern.
    They get these dropping of the leaves from the base of the leaf not stalk, I found once they do this, they will not stand upright again, but the problem? I suspect our tin shed shop is to cold for them, yet not all peace lillies next to each other will do the same.
    When over watered they will also do this. When under watered they droop from the base of the stem.
    With a lot of TLC they can come back, having to remove all the bent leaves, and waiting months for all the new leaves to grow.

    Honestly, my 3 spatiphyllums are in plastic pots, in my tropical mix (30% indoor soil + 20% tourbe + 20% orchid bark + 20% perlite + ?% (about right mesure of) sand + 20% leca) in a good bright room and i water them once a week with tape water that i let sit overnight so chlore evaporate and fertilise once a month and i just forget about them the rest of the time and they trive. 💪🏻

    Oh dear. Mine has thrived( thriven?) On watering when it droops a bit. It's not doing well just now. It used to flower really well when it had a companion peace lily. I need arresting! Repot perhaps.

    We have two peace lilly’s - we only thoroughly water when the leaves droop , within hours they sit up lively and it will be up to 4 weeks before watering again. Ours don’t get the wonderful amount of light yours do but we have had white flowers regularly albeit only a couple at a time. The peace Lilly is a truly low maintenance plant, nearly as good as our faux plants 😅

    04:35 That moisture meter is one of the worst meters on the market, i bought 10 of them and 7 were broken. The 3 that did work all gave different readings at the same spots 🤷‍♂

    Just watering mine today the bigger two are ok with actual flowers (only cost me three quid ) but my god they are thirsty I've literally had three trays of water for one and just moved into the moist category.) The smaller ones are more problematic but I definitely got carried away with them repotting and too much plant food as one of my first plants and I knew nothing

    I actually grow mine in water and no soil at all. It's about 10 years old now. It does bloom with white spathes, but not all that often. I usually get one or two blooms per year. But I actually like the foliage better than the 'flowers' so that's not a problem for me.
