These are some of the few ways you can keep your peace lily alive
Provide Proper Lighting
Peace lilies thrive in light conditions that mimic the dappled shade of their natural rainforest habitats. While they can survive in low light, for optimal blooming, place your plant in a spot with bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunshine can scorch the leaves, so avoid placing them directly in front of a sunny window.
2. Keep the Watering Consistent
These tropical plants need a steady supply of moisture but do not do well with overwatering or sitting in standing water, which can lead to root rot. Allow the top inch of the soil to dry out between waterings, and when you do water, do so thoroughly until it runs from the drainage holes.
3. Maintain Adequate Humidity
prefer a humid environment. You can increase humidity around the plant with a humidifier, by placing a water-filled tray with pebbles under the pot.
Fertilize Moderately
Feeding your peace lily standard houseplant fertilizer diluted to half-strength every 6 to 8 weeks during the growing season can promote healthy growth and flowering. However, be cautious not to overdo it as too much fertilizer can damage your plant.
5. Repot When Necessary
As peace lilies grow, they may become pot-bound. If you notice roots are growing out of the drainage holes or the soil is quickly drying out, it's time to repot into a larger container.
