Fixing Brown Tips on Peace Lily Leaves

Brown Edges Are Common but Manageable

Some tip burn is normal on peace lilies (Spathiphyllum). Trim discolored edges with sharp scissors, following the leaf's natural shape.

Prevent Recurrence

• Water before leaves wilt—don't wait for drooping.
• Use filtered or distilled water if tap water is hard.
• Fertilize monthly at half-strength max.

These three adjustments eliminate most chronic browning.
