# I got this new peace lily a few weeks ago and it’s been doing great!…

_Posted by Lilee on 2025-06-03_

I got this new peace lily a few weeks ago and it’s been doing great! Lots of new leaf growth, but I’m concerned that it hasn’t put out any new flowers since bringing it home. Is there anything I can do to encourage new flowers to grow? Open to suggestions!!

I’m no expert, but mine has been consistently growing flowers for months now and this is what I’ve been doing:  
\- I bottom water with room temp, filtered water and only when it looks droopy and sad  
\- bright indirect sunlight all day, sometimes direct if I forget to move it off the window in the afternoon lol (maybe that helps idk, but I read they don’t like it)  
\- I fertilize with a high phosphorous one 1x monthly/bi but just the tiniest amount and then I “rinse” it out by pouring clean water on top until water runs out the drain holes  
-not that you have to worry about this yet with one flower but when that bulb goes green, I cut off the stalk close to the bottom

Thank you! I will have to try out the high phosphorus fertilizer
