When I met my now husband 12 years ago, he has a peace lily in a nursery pot in the dining room. It was covered in dust. I thought it was fake, but he insisted it wasn't. I repotted it and began to water it every time the leaves drooped. Once a month, I give it a couple tablespoons of worm castings. It is so hardy, I've been able to split it 5 times. It makes a great gift!
I don't understand what's difficult about this plant. I found my very wilted one in the garbage. Somebody threw it out. It was in a terracotta pot so I repotted it into a ceramic pot, watered it and it's been a breeze ever since. The leaves tell me when it's thirsty so I water it then and that's it. Super easy. Just like the variegated one. Both are blooming all the time. Such rewarding plants. I would love to have one with big leaves like yours. Mine has very small leaves. But it was free so I'm not complaining 😅
@harli g oh my goodness!!! I noticed the jug you used to water and I use the same ones! Those Hawaiian punch jugs are awesome. They are almost exactly a gallon, making it easy to measure water conditioner or fertilizer and we have a ton of them.....lol. I also love that I can keep things uniform and have all the same jugs with different things in them. I would almost keep buying Hawaiian punch even if my kids didn't like it....I love the jugs especially with that handle on the top. It makes it so easy to pour and to carry/move around. Beautiful peace Lilly by the way. I've been wanting to get one myself.
My parents got a peace lily as a wedding gift 31 years ago and that plant is still doing amazing!! That plant has been through it 😅we had a cat that used it’s large pot as a litter box for a bit, and my Mom likes to joke that if the peace lily dies they have to get divorced as it has a become a symbol for their marriage and this plant always bounces back! When I moved into my own house I had to take a piece of it with me when i moved. I need to repot it ❤
I’m from the future, and I just wanted to say I love this! You came from great stock! Hope you’re kickin @$$ in life and spending time with your lovely parentals when time allows.✌🏼 -Some Chick from Alabama 😎
I live in a very dry climate as well, After struggling with that for a while, I moved ours into our large restroom and it is doing really well there with the humidity it gets.
Thank you so much. Best advice I've seen, especially to me, a new peace lily owner, I'm terrified of hurting her & just learnt the sun thing the hard way 🤦♀️
I have my peace lily in a terracotta pot sitting in a wide ceramic bowl. I fill the bowl when the outer pot is dry (I use a moisture meter normally in case it’s too damp). It’s in bright indirect light now. I used to have problems with smaller leaves and no flowering and the classic peace lily flop if I forgot to water it. I find the outer bowl method works so well now. Bigger leaves and plenty of flowers. No flopping. I think their natural habitat is river banks and it is semi-aquatic. Maybe I’m wrong but I find it doesn’t get root rot and actually thrives having its feet always wet. Especially in the growing season.
Hi Carly! How are you? I keep a turkey baster in my plant supplies for when too much water comes out the saucer. Helps avoid overflows. Hope that helps. Gerry HPEteacher 😎
I was working on my peace lily as I watched your video, and the same thing happened with the water about a couple of seconds before it did to you on the video 😂 thanks for sharing!
Hi Harli, your ginormous Peace Lily is GORGEOUS!! I'm so happy to say that my large Peace Lily Babygirl" has finally bloomed, my second is thriving and, now my rootless Mom's Peace Lily that I tried to save, has finally sprouted nice roots in water culture!! First time doing water culture and it's doing beautifully!!❤️🥰🙏🏼
Here in the south western parts of Australia, we get them popping up everywhere when autumn comes, and it starts raining a lot, and they will last until the end of spring they're gorgeous
💚Have you considered propagating it? I divided off a few small sections from my sentimental snake plant to keep as backups (and to enjoy them in more rooms). My mom even has one! I'm sure someone from your local gardening club would come over and take a look... or take it to one of their meetings. Sorry for your loss. I'm sure covid starting so soon after didn't make the grieving process any easier. My partner lost his college-age son in Sept 2020.
You know what .. I didn’t . I’ll try that. I have done with my snake plants also. Thanks for suggesting. And I’m sorry for your partners loss as well. It’s a terrible loss and yes then COVID after that. It’s been rough few years .Thanks again for your message.
from what i know that specific peace lily is not a sensation, but a spathiphyllum sweet pablo if i am correct, the actually spathiphyllum sensation (sp. Ortesgii) is way larger, and by large i mean it can reach 10ft tall, and thats pretty huge - they're not very avaliable in their mature state, but the leaves are absolutely beautiful and huge. they're not the cheapest plant tho but this care video is one of the more informative ones! all the ones i see on here are pretty vague; peace lilies are pretty versitile but they aren't one of the hardiest plants!
I was just thinking that and checking to see if someone else was under the same impression. It's definitely a sweet Pablo, the size of the leafs, the shade of green and the stems are different on the sensation :) it looks very beautiful and healthy tho :)
@@pascalecimon989 yes, exactly, the sensation has very thick stems and very large abs; the veitchii of the spathiphyllums! its definetly a beautiful healthy plant, glad to see someone that knows of the sensation
Just picked up a discounted large peace lily from my place of work. Very wilted but it was sitting in water and the soil was soaked. 🤞🤞🤞 Hope things go well!!
I definitely recommend keeping peace lilies in ceramic pots because they're so dramatic when it comes to wanting water and you don't have to water them as much when they're in the ceramic ones, just be careful not to over water them
Sorry if you’ve answered this but I’m a newbie. I’ve had my peace lily for 1 year and I think it’s time to repot. Can you please link which soil I should get?
Side Note I had an idea 💡 for a video the pros of cutting plants back, a video that gives us sacred people the reassurance of when is the right time, how to, why it's good, because I know I need to do it on some of my plants but I'm scared imma do it incorrectly. And as always, love the vid always a fan of hanging out and learning from you❤
Should I loosen the roots on my lily. Mine is half the size of yours but in a pot from florist. Had several tiny flowers, but now hardly any 😢. My only sun is in a south window but I live in Minnesota and it's probably less than 6 hours a day or less is that okay I do have a east window thx j
Do you know how to keep Boston ferns alive till next year zone 6a, I tried cutting them back and putting them in the basement over the winter watering sparingly and they didn't make it. 3:51
My variagated one this year was very root bound and (3years in my care) pushed 6 blooms in very high light but I lost some leaves with that amount of flowers so cut em off lol
What size is the new pot. I have a peace lily that’s large like this one , and still in the black nursery pot that’s 10 inches inside a crème plastic decorative pot . I wonder if that’s a 12 in or 14 in? Anyone know, I don’t see it in the description
Hi Harli 💫 What a beautiful peace lily. I’ve always been iffy on those because I’ve heard from others here that they can be quite finniky…. But honestly what plant isn’t ?? Hmmm… should I get one now 🤔Thank you for another awesome video. 🙏🏻💫
I divided the larger but rather sadly donated one into several parts and each got their own self-watering pot. They are all in Lechuza pon, growing wonderfully.
I was gifted one and nine days later it’s drooping. I repotted and cleaned up the roots but it’s still drooping, I gave it water and hoping it bounces back. I’ve watched 100 videos and doing everything advised. ??
I repot it and my substrate keep moody and it rotted so why most people says they like to stay moist ? And I have heard some people say they don’t like to stay wet so which one it is
I am really thinking about moving my Peace Lily out on the screened in porch for the summer. Actually I am thinking about moving all of them out on the porch
Can you separate the crowns and plant those as a gift to someone? I have two peace lillies from my dad's funeral, and would love to gift some of the crowns to my siblings.
A little off topic but… can I/ is it okay to use liqui dirt and water my orchid with it? I’ve been doing it off and on this growing season and they seem to be okay, both of mine have bloomed
So my peace Lily was doing horrible until I put it in a south facing window . For mine I think it was water quality that made the difference, I only water mine with distilled water
The leaves got tiny, does anyone know why and how I can improve it? I did move, she stoped blooming since the move, but I'm sorry, she's gonna have to survive in New place
For my Peace Lily once the top soil is dry, it needs watering. It does not like to dry out at all. The leaves also start to wilt a little, that's how I know it needs watering. They can be easy once you learn your plant, and watering needs. It is a plant to keep an eye on for sure, but not that hard.
if you check for gutting ( water droplets at the end of the leaves ) then they don't need extra water, if these droplets are gone, just wait 4 days with watering. if you water them make sure it is a room temp. and they prefer rainwater and even a bit of coffee, or banana peel-tea
I say if your floor not messy you havent done a good job...... ... i always have dirt and dead leaves everywhere when i look down like ha.... im messy...lmaooooo 😂😂😂
I always regret buying them because they give off the pollen smell... im allergic to pillen.... so now i just cut off the flower even though ther big snd pretty
I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO KEEP THEM ALIVE MY WIFE PASSED 12-26-22 IT'S WAS HER IT WAS GIVEN TO HER SHE HAD 7 Lillies THIS YEAR IN 2024 I Counted 17 THE LEAVES ARE BIG AND HEAVY THE PLANT IS BIG BUT BEAUTIFUL. WHAT CANI I DO
@@HarliG thank you so much for responding, I really appreciate it. I need my peace Lilly to grow as big , tall and healthy as yours. I have problems with my lungs and am currently trying to surround myself with indoor plants that clean the air to help promote better breathing.
What? Your putting a peace lily in terra cotta? That's a no-no unless you are willing to be a helicopter parent everyday. A self-watering pot is the way to go!

I use a self watering pot for mine and it works great
What is a self watering pot???
I heard a little tomato feed can encourage the plant to flower - Today I noticed mine has flowered! 😊
Great video! You have a lot of reverb in your room you could mitigate this by putting a mattress in there out of camera sight
You speak my language! So glad to find you, and happy spring!
Looks so beautiful in that pot!!! Gorgeous plant Harli🤗🌱💚
I live in a very dry climate as well, After struggling with that for a while, I moved ours into our large restroom and it is doing really well there with the humidity it gets.
Love that pot with the peace lily!! ❤
Hi Harli, I have 3 peace lilies, and I love them. For me, they tell me when they need watering because their leaves will begin to droop. ❤
It looks great in that new pot!
You did a great job with the peace lily; helpful tips also!
It looks great now👍

I have a sensation peace lily. I love it and have to put it in the shower to water it. I haven't had it long but it is beautiful
Mine got huge so I cut it into 3rds and put them all in water and they are growing beautifully.
Love your coffee set up 😮 we have a Brevelle too, we love it!!
I am new to your channel and l have a peace lily that is growing like crazy but l have never had a flower.Thanks for all the tips.
My peace Lilly flowers are dying. Do I cut the whole stem off or just the flowers?
I just cut it down to where the stem connects to a leaf

Wondering what is your "go-to" potting mixture is? I'd like to give it a try!
Love your videos 📹 ❤️

Hey I would like to repot mine. What soil do you think is good? I have moisture control potting mix by miracle grow. Do you think that’s good to use

Hi just my Peace Lilly today, I live in a basment so I got her under lights. 18 hour schedule would be ok right? Thanks.

I’ve had my peace Lilly since 1994. It came from Home Depot. I need to take better care of it.
I just bought a peace lily from Walmart. Should I repot it, fertilize it and water it right away?
Omg urs is so pretty

What about the leaves drooping down
I think i killed my peace lily. It was going so good. Then i repotted it . Can u tell me how to revive it?
Whats type of soil did you use ?
Any tips for keeping them in water? 😅 I tried going from soil to water and it died 💔
For my Peace Lily once the top soil is dry, it needs watering. It does not like to dry out at all. The leaves also start to wilt a little, that's how I know it needs watering. They can be easy once you learn your plant, and watering needs. It is a plant to keep an eye on for sure, but not that hard.
I love how dramatic Peace Lilies are! 😏
I love peace lilies! The green of their leaves is so beautiful…but they hate me.
if you check for gutting ( water droplets at the end of the leaves ) then they don't need extra water,
if these droplets are gone, just wait 4 days with watering.
if you water them make sure it is a room temp. and they prefer rainwater and even a bit of coffee,
or banana peel-tea
I'm glad I'm not the only one who begs for surface tension to save me😅
It's a daily occurrence here :P
Do all peace lilies grows this big?
Nope
My peace lily’s leaves are droopy!! What do I do!?😭😭 I can’t find any helpful websites
I’ve unintentionally unalived so many peace lilies they won’t let me buy any more 😕
I say if your floor not messy you havent done a good job...... ... i always have dirt and dead leaves everywhere when i look down like ha.... im messy...lmaooooo 😂😂😂
I have mine in LECA. My plant no longer droops!

❓My peace lily leaves are much darker than yours. The leaves are almost black. Is there something wrong ❓
I’d have to see a photo to have a better idea, but it could just be a different variety
