# I’d read a while back about potting up a peace lily in water so…

_Postat av Zwanie den 2025-06-19_

I’d read a while back about potting up a peace lily in water so thought I’d give it a go. The leaves began yellowing despite regular topping up and changing of the water, including fertiliser, so I decided to put her back in soil. She’s so wilted, I honestly think I’ve ruined her 😫 please help!!

Peace lilies are resilient in my experience. Never potted it with water even though they love it lol. Try repotting in well draining soil that retains some water since they love it. Good luck!

How long ago did you put it back in soil? It looks thirsty. If you just did it then it should bounce back. If its been a week and it still looks like that then idk. But i wouldn't repot it again untill the leaves look better. It just depends on when you repotted it..

Just at the weekend- I’ve put her in water again now so fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Shes got transplant shock. Mine went through the same thing. When I put her back in soil she became dramatic, but adjusted with time. Resembled my teenage daughter a bit, lol.
