Help with my peace lily- the ends are pointing down and slightly brown on the tips. These flowers have been there for awhile, should I cut them back? It’s still growing new blooms. Thanks!

Not sure about if you should cut the flower blooms, but I know having a humidifier in the area helps keep the tips of the leaves, spathe, and spadix from crisping!

You can cut off the green flowers. It will look much better. And these guys love humidity so mist frequently, try a pebble tray, or place a humidifier near her.
