# Hi! I’m very new to plants and have been having a bit of a battle…

_Geplaatst door Tracey op 2023-06-29_

Hi! I’m very new to plants and have been having a bit of a battle with my Peace Lily. First the flowers immediately died after a week in its new home. I put her in better lighting and follow a normal watering schedule. Small growth started but I noticed yesterday that the tips of every leaf is yellow and browning. How can I fix this? I watered yesterday (although my Planta schedule said watering is t due for a few days the soil was extremely dry).

The flowers probably died due to moving shock which is completely normal! The brown tips are most likely (at least in my experience) due to lack of humidity (which is pretty common with peace lilies), you could try misting more frequently or more effectively, adding a pebble try or small humidifier (there are some really cheap and compact cordless ones on Amazon).  
I would also try cleaning those leaves, they look a little dusty and that can cause problems conducting photosynthesis (just grab a damp paper towel and wipe them down making sure not to leave pools of water on the leaves as these can cause fungal issues).  
Hope this helps!
