Peace lily dying :(
Hi guys! My peace Lily is dying :( she used to be big and lush and flowered with 4 different growths but over last 6 months started to decline. Repotted her into a smaller pot about two months ago and declined even more. Now sheβs lost all of her growth on to her last 3 healthy leaves. Willow is 6 years old. Please help, what should I do? How do I help her heal?
4ft to light, indirect
9β pot with drainage
Last watered 1 month ago
Hi Jasmine! It sounds like Willow is going through a tough time. Here are a few things you can try to help her:
* Check the roots: Gently remove the plant from the pot and inspect the roots. If they are mushy or black, it could be a sign of root rot. In this case, remove any damaged roots and repot the plant in fresh, well-draining soil.
* Adjust watering: Peace Lilies prefer their soil to be consistently moist, but not soggy. Water the plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot.
* Provide proper light: Peace Lilies prefer bright, indirect light. Place the plant near a window that receives plenty of light, but avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
* Increase humidity: Peace Lilies appreciate high humidity. You can increase the humidity around your plant by misting the leaves regularly or using a humidifier.
With proper care, Willow should recover and start to thrive again. Good luck!

@USAGardenHub thank you very much. What do you recommend to repot in? Should I downsize again?
