A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The House Plant Forum Dying Peace Lily! HELP!

I went on vacation for a week. Watered before I left. Returned and watered. lily was gorgeous until this point. Now, 6 days later, the leaves are all turning yellow and drooping. I'm sick about this. Is there anything I can do? I "raised" this plant from a 2" pot and it's now very large. It was just replanted in the spring. Should I take it out of the pot, take all the soil away from the roots and replace it? Please help!

Welcome, RedRain.
Here is a link to peace lily care. I hope it helps. And I also hope your plant recovers.

Thank you very much for replying. I saw that link but it doesn't address the problem. I'm as sick about this as my plant. I guess we invest more of ourselves into these plants than we care to admit. I just feel awful!

What Tina said but emphasizing the temperature. Repot the plant. I would change the soil just in case there is fungus.

Your probably over watering. I only water mine when the leaves get droopy. After that they spring back up and I don't water again for a few weeks. Re-pot it in dry soil and water it less. Don't put it in direct sunlight either. I have two peace lilies that I have not had any trouble with. The more I neglect them the better they seem to be, I only fertilize in the spring and alway drain the tray after watering; don't let it sit is standing water.
