will these brown spots ever go away ? i keep forgetting to water her and she’s not happy about it. 🤦‍♀️ i usually cut around the brown spots but i hate how unnatural it looks. but i don’t want to chop otherwise healthy leaves off. thoughts ?

The leaf will never turn green again so yes you can cut it but have your watering reminders on!:) she might also like humidity as well that will help with this weather too

I forget to water often to 🤦🏽‍♀️. But on this app you can set watering reminders for each of your plants, it really helps me.

I switched my Peace Lily to a self watering pot about a month ago and it’s doing great! Haven’t had any browning leaves since
