All the leaves were dead, but I kept the best ones. Can anyone tell me what’s going on with the old stems? I know they are rotting ish, part of it is dirt. But the fuzzy sprouts are new. Is this just new roots. It’s happening on a lot of the plant. Any tips for saving her are welcome! At this point I just feel bad enough to keep her ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/8BoZSrI0SBmbP3nijiw_0Q.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/rqfSbahTQDmVsBpVrqDqSA.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/PuPYDlnuS2mQFOne9MSOVg.webp?size=large) ## 12개의 댓글 ### fuey님이 2025-04-25에 댓글을 남겼어요. Those look like the previous soil roots rotting in the water, you should trim them as much as you can. Anyone else is free to give input. I’ve never owned a peace lily so i’m not experienced with their care or root type ### KJM님이 2025-04-25에 댓글을 남겼어요. I agree. It will do better in soil. ### Bb님이 2025-04-26에 댓글을 남겼어요. Hi there, I have a peace lily in water rehab right now. The brown mushy stuff is rot. Use a clean pair of snips to trim off all the brown bits. Check if the rhizomey bit that the roots are growing from has any rot. If so, there’s probably no point continuing. If not, here is what I have been doing and it’s SLOWLY (and I’m talking like more than 6 months already) recovering, growing new roots and leaves: after cutting off the rotten roots, I give the roots a soak for an hour in a mixture of 3 parts water to 1 part hydrogen peroxide (the 3% solution you can buy at the pharmacy) - so if making 2 cups of liquid in total, that’s 1.5 cups water and 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide. Then I just put it in water and change the water every week. After a while I kicked things up to try to improve root development: I added hydroponic fertiliser into the water with every water change. I use GT Clonex Clone Solution. I also added an air stone (the thing you use for fish tanks) to add oxygen to the water which I run 12 hours a day. My peace lily is also under a grow light for 12 hours. Initially it lost all of its old roots. I helped the process over time by gently sloughing them off by hand. And then new roots have grown as well as tiny baby leaves. Along the way I have also done a few water + hydrogen peroxide soaks for an hour at a time. Generally after sloughing off dead old roots. My lesson from this is that it takes ALOT of time to rehab an unwell peace lily. But it’s definitely working. I had 4 or 5 rhizome bits (separate plants) in there and only 1 rotted, a tiny one. Best of luck with this! It’s definitely an exercise in patience :) 🌿🌿🌿 #### Cece님이 2025-04-26에 답변했습니다. Alright. So I cut off what rot I could, it seems the rest is just dirt that got stuck that I couldn’t get out previously. I had to cut off some mushy roots too, but otherwise I think it’s good. Does it look like it could still grow from here? ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/o6vD1rIbST6sORiFpFUHCg.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/RK4Wi3e1TM6i9CSx7qF89Q.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/lkEyB_-qT4aK3NnIxHVCUA.webp?size=large) #### Bb님이 2025-04-27에 답변했습니다. Yep, I’d give rehab a try. However that doesn’t look like a peace lily. Have you got a photo of what the plant used to look like? #### Cece님이 2025-04-27에 답변했습니다. This is what she looked like prior to my failure as a plant parent . ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Cxv34BilMYxMKXTcAPJchGZ4ZTHcdgBiaLzifS_kNg8/MOdhyxjuRZ6UuefKZn28aQ.webp?size=large) #### Bb님이 2025-04-27에 답변했습니다. Ok definitely not a peace lily, could be a canna lily #### Cece님이 2025-04-27에 답변했습니다. Got her from the clearance section for a few bucks, I’m pretty sure her tag said she was a peace lily but I could be mistaken. _앱에서 4개의 답글 더 보기_ --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
