Our peace lily has had all of the problems above, but now we know better how to solve them. One thing you did not address is when to repot or divide the plant. We have several offshoots that are growing and the pot appears to be getting pretty crowded. Any advice? Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hi Mike,
You can repot peace lily during spring season. While repotting you can divide crown region carefully with the help of hand or Knife. Make sure that the new plant must have 2 or more leaves with roots at the base. Remove all the dead and diseased leaves and repot in the new pot of desirable size. Apply adequate amount of water after repotting and wait till the new plant gets established very well in the new pot.
