SunBurned Peace Lily

13 years ago

My Grandmother gave me the Peace Lily that she got back in 1997 for my Grandfathers funeral. It was too big for her etc. So I took it home with the though that I would divide it. For a while I didn't have the time and in the meantime it got sunburned leaves.... This troubles me and I wanted to know if there is anything that I can do to help this plant go back to it's former glory. (I did divide and put into separate pots but this was after it was burned). I would like to give my grandmother one of the smaller plants now, but not when it looks like they do!

Please Help!

Thanks!

Spathiphyllums are tropical houseplants not lilies. You should not have them outside unless it is in the shade.

Cut the sunburned foliage off, get them into shade or the house and water and fertilize.
