Hey everyone! I have a peace lily and I'm trying to figure out how to make it bloom again. I've heard they can be a bit tricky, so I'd love to hear your tips or experiences on what works for you. Any advice on lighting, watering, or care would be super helpful!

I've noticed that many people keep their peace lilies in too low light, which can hinder blooming. They need a bit of energy to produce flowers, so if you have rich soil and are watering correctly, consider moving your plant to a spot with brighter light. Just be careful with direct sun!
I've got two peace lilies at work, and they bloom regularly, surprisingly! I think they're not getting enough light since they grow near a window but don't get direct sun. I usually water them once a week, mainly when they start drooping. Dusting off the leaves often seems to help too! My mom has one in low light, and it's thriving, so I wouldn’t stress too much about fertilizing either.
My peace lily just turned 30 last month! I didn’t see blooms for a decade, but since I started using a grow light four years ago, it bloomed twice! To keep it blooming, I've learned that decent pruning helps. I remove some of the older leaves and focus on the newer shoots because those seem to have a better chance of flowering. It’s all about maintaining a healthy balance of nutrients too!
