I'm with stitchingnana. Peace lilies don't want to be in direct light, but they need decent light - bright light if you want them to bloom. They're not mushrooms. Don't automatically water once a week. Feel the soil and let it dry out a bit, then water. Over-watering can cause yellow leaves too. And get some Miracle Grow for Indoor Plants and follow the instructions. Stuff works wonders.
Agreed. Most indoor plants need some type of sunlight. The only plant I've found that can sit in a corner and not worry about sunlight is a philodendron. I have one on top of my refrigerator and another on top of the dropped ceiling kitchen cabinets and they are flourishing. And yes, check you are not over watering.
I have mine in a well lit but not direct sun, bathroom I never automatically water it. If the leaves begin to droop, I sit it in a bowl of water until it perks up and them put it back to where it was. I think maybe you are overthinking it. Robyn
I only water mine when it starts to look droopy and then I give it a good glug of water. My leaves started going like that when I was watering it too much.
I agree with what's been said, I think it needs more light; feel the soil before watering; check it's not in a draught from a fan or a/c. And don't beat yourself up! :-)
Need more sunlight. They will be ok by window but hav to mist them once or twice on a warm/hot day. I water mine once every 2 weeks. Or whenever the leaves feel hydrated. I love my peace lilies. They flower all year round. One secret to keep them happy is give them kisses (yes weird but it works ). I find that All houseplants do much better with bright lights. Make sure there are no pest on them. Especially thrips. Also make sure you not give them too much fertilizer.
My Peace Lily is from my Mom's funeral in 2008 and it is still growing strong. I have it inside and I have it is indirect sunlight. All lilies need water not a drowning! I water thoroughly then check it every few days to see if the soil has dried. If so I water again.
I want to share this great testimony to the world on how Dr. Kham cured me from HSV1&2 with his herbs, I was nervous when i first contact him about the cure for HSV but i decided to give him a try because i was desperate to get cured and be free from HSV. Dr. Kham prepared the cure and sent it to me through UPS,which I use just the way Dr. Kham instructed me and thank God today I am a beneficiary to this cure and I went back to the hospital after two weeks of taking the herbs and I tested HSV1&2 Negative. So I will tell you all who are looking for a cure to his/her HSV1&2 that Dr. Kham took research before he could finally get the solution to it and a lot of people are benefiting from him right now. He also cured my friend from HPV. Dr. Kham heals with natural herbs. Please I urge you to contact him now through his email address: dr.khamcaregiver@gmail.com or call and WhatsApp him on +2348159922297. His website is drkhamherbalhealingcenter.wordpress.com/ and he is capable of curing HIV/AIDS, HERPES, HPV, HSV1&2, CANCER of all kinds,DIABETES and so many other infections.

ReplyDeleteDitto what everyone has already said 🙂
ReplyDeleteToo much watering, and not enough light
ReplyDeleteYep. Just clip off that bad leaf, cut back on watering and move it for a little more light.
ReplyDeleteI would also add that if it's sitting where a fan or a/c blows on it, it might dry out more than you think.
