# Can anyone tell my why the leaves on this peace lily look like this?…

_Publié par Gracie le 2025-06-01_

Can anyone tell my why the leaves on this peace lily look like this? This plant came from a funeral in 2014, so keep in mind she is 11years old. I have only had her for about a year and a half after my aunt was tired of dealing with it. Can the wrinkled looking leaves be saved or should I just cut them off? Blue pot is what she looked like when I got her, since repotting she has put out 2 new small leaves. Placed directly infront of a south facing window.

Just like kids she might need some outside time

Also, bright indirect light rather than direct sunlight. A south window is probably frying it!

The way the apartment buildings are set up it blocks the sun so I don’t get much direct light but would it be better if I moved it infront of a grow light maybe?

If it’s not getting direct sun, you’re probably fine. I’m wondering why you have pebbles on the soil. It may need more air - and I would nix the pebbles 😉.

Before I repotted it there were fungus gnats all in the old soil. After repotting I added the pebbles to try and keep them from laying any eggs in the new soil. I think I saw it on TikTok and so far it seems to be working

Well, patience might be your best strategy!
