Need help with repotted Peace lily

Hello All, Thanks in advance for reading the post.
I bought this peace lily from TJ, and it was in 6inch pot badly root bounded ( it needed water every 2/3 days ) so I did some research and planned to repot it in slightly bigger (8inch) pot. I did cut few roots horizontally so that it can find new space in new soil. I repotted last Thursday, thoroughly watered, no harsh light near humidifier. After that it started wilting, yellowing leaves ( i take deep breath and thought it will recover just in a shock as it is drama queen of plant world) but still not a single leave has recovered! Not I am getting anxious, did I kill it? If any hopes- How can I recover it? Can you guys help
Please??

Very sad Peace Lily

Hello!

I bought a peace lily on sale from my work as I found it had fallen over in the soil. I thought with a repot and some TLC she'd be fine, but I was WRONG.

It turned out she was very rootbound, so I repotted her and put her in more aerated soil (I put some perlite in the soil mixture). She's green but has been wilted for WEEKS. She also keeps falling over no matter the soil I put on top or the stake I attach her to. I'm not sure her problem! It's winter and my place doesn't get much sun. I've since given the plant to my step mum who has better sun and warmth in her home. But idk if it'll help. If anyone has some tips as to what could help or what might be wrong, I'd appreciate it!

When I repotted the plant, I loosened the roots as gentley as I could and I sized up the pot by about an inch. I didn't trim the roots even though they were a bit long as I didn't want to add more trauma to the plant. I've also tried to hold back on watering too much as I said, it's winter.

Peace Lily slowly giving up

Help!! I’ve had my peace lily for about 2.5 years now maybe and it’s always been doing good. However, last year, I went back to my motherland for holidays and left her in the care of someone I thought I could trust, but basically it went through some trouble. Eventually it bounced back and even flowered in December, and again one flower in June. I moved last month and since then she’s just been too droopy. I dont know if it’s the heatwave (based in Europe) or something else but the soil was never draining properly anymore (soil would stay wet even 10 days later, whereas in my old apartment she’d be upset by day 10). I repotted her last Sunday and she’s been on decline since then and I am at my wit’s end. I tried bottom watering her yesterday cause I thought maybe she was just thirsty, but I really don’t know what to do ☹️☹️☹️

First time owning a peace lily!

Hi all! I've been a little confused about how to tell if my plant is drooping, how to ensure there are no brown edges, and if the colour of the leaves should be lighter? I wanna ensure I'm doing it all right! I heard watering the plant with a lot of water is good every few days is good?

thanks!

is this peace lily going to rot?

Hello
bought a new peace lily online and one of the leaves is yellow and few of the stems have weird tips

the plant came with the top of the soil cling wrapped and was damp when I opened it so I havent given it much water

It will stay near a window with indirect light
I’ve put it in front of a wall just for clicking a photo without a distracting background

any help will be appreciated
thanks!!

Mom’s funeral peace lily fell… help!

Hi all, a little shelf (that was installed before I moved into my house) fell off the wall randomly tonight. Crashing down with it came my little peace lily, which I nurtured as a baby from my sister’s mother plant — that came from our mom’s funeral. It’s taken a few years (like…10?), but it had been flowering yearly and started growing its own babies in the past couple years. I really want this plant to survive this accident… it feels like a piece of my mom! What should I do tonight and/or tomorrow, when I can go get supplies? I have a small plant pot and about 4 cups of miracle gro houseplant soil that I could use tonight (plus whatever you’d find in a normal kitchen ,e.g. bowls etc). Pics of my poor plant. Be kind please, I’m not really in a space for negative commentary. 💕 thank you! 🥺

She’s flowering!

I found her in the trash at work two years ago and she already had a pretty flower. Now she’s flowering again. I’ve been waiting and checking every day lol.

Is it done for?

I recieved this plant for my birthday in February. It was replacement for a variegated peace lily I had purchased a few years prior that didn't make it home due to extreme heat in a hot car ( Phoenix) I noticed the browning on the leaves and decided to set up a mister in the garage and was rotating my plants one at a time, became busy and left this guy in their for a couple of days, I think the hard water played a big role in the condition. If anyone could please help me save this guy id be forever grateful! I truly can not let him die but am terrified to do anything without asking for help first!

Help me save her

Hello everyone 👋🏽. This is my darling, Lillian Von Evergreen. She is a two year old peace lily that was bequeathed to me at my grandfather's funeral. When I got her, she had her mighty white flowers, and her leaves stood tall, reaching the heavens. Now, I fear something is amiss.

She has grown more lanky, her stems so spindly and skinny, and her leaves are not as big as they could be. She also has gained more yellow and brown leaves, and she has not birthed flowers or seeds in months. I water her when her leaves droop (perhaps not the best practice), and I keep her in my room (it is the brightest in my house, but I still feel that the lighting is not sufficient for her)

I am worried about her. I already lost her sister, my first Lilianna-Iris Von Evergreen. I don't want to lose her. A remaining link to my grandfather...forgotten

So I beg of thee, what must I do?
