Can I save my peace lily?


The big flowers are brown and feel dry. I try to water it a little every day but seems like this might be the wrong approach. I have the plant sitting about 10 feet from a big window, so it’s never in direct sunlight.

    The plant looks fine. Flowers bloom for a week or two then die off, its normal. You can cut them off at the base if you want.

    flowers just die over time, its just how flowers work, the plant makes them to reproduce and then they die, eventually it will make more if it wants to. the plant is fine, remove dead flowers and resume normal care

    what others said about the flowers but watering it every day (even a little) is a recipe for root rot.
    Let the peace lily tell you when it wants water, it’ll flop down and lose structure when it needs it.
    Either bottom water it if there’s good root structure, or just drown it until water runs out the bottom. Once it gets the water it wants, it’ll spring back up again good as new. I always let mine go this way and it’s thrived.
