# There are no stupid questions.. but here is mine anyways. This peace…

_Posted by Buffy on 2024-12-26_

There are no stupid questions.. but here is mine anyways. This peace lily is from a 23-year-old mother plant from my Grandpa’s funeral. I put this in water about two months ago, after I performed a life saving repot after a pet got into it (and the cat did not get sick, thank God). Is this huge growth near the bottom like an iris corm? Is it ready to plant in airy soil? I took smaller plantlets from it as well and those have regular roots. Thank you!

Peace Lillys have rhizomes, (like an Iris plant) that will gain roots as it grows. they don't produce corms like an alocasia, though they can be divided.

Thank you!

Personally I’d wait until some more roots develop but technically since they have rhizomes you can plant it now.

Thank you. I will wait to give it its best shot! 🙂
