\*\*Hey everyone!\*\*  
I could really use some plant wisdom. I have a peace lily that I’m trying to save. I split up the large plant into two separate pots with a mixed soil blend for good drainage, and both pots have drainage holes, so I thought I was doing everything right. But now, all of them have brown and yellow leaves at the tips, and I’m not sure what’s going wrong.

I’ve tried caring for peace lilies before, but I’ve never had much luck. If anyone has tips—watering schedules, light preferences, anything—I’d really appreciate it!

How much light are they getting? What are your watering habits with them? How dry are you allowing the soil get?

Peace Lillie’s like moist shady environments… they can even grow in water. Personally I would mist occasionally and keep the soil moist but not soggy. If you have a humidifier that could help. Or move to the bathroom if it has a window to allow some natural light in.

I follow my app’s guidance for watering and care. Our home features an open floor plan with large windows, allowing plenty of natural light to fill the space.
