Hi guys, I’m a new plant owner and I just got this peace lily for college. Does anyone have any advice for care, I’m doing research but I don’t want to accidentally hurt my plant, I haven’t had much luck with other plants I’ve had. 😅

Great choice! Peace Lillie’s are troopers! My grandmother gave me mine for my first apartment when I was 20. I’m now 40! So you could have this plant for a long time and remember your college days 😊 Make sure it has lots of light but not direct Sun (I’ve burnt mine many times in 20 years) and it will tell you if you forget to water it - the leaves start to droop!

Thank you so much! Really appreciate it!

Mine just looked like this the other day! My friend said to douse it in water, I currently have it in my bathtub draining but I’ve fed it four bottles of water in the last day and it’s doing a LOT better. (Picture is before watering)
