Peace Lilly going brown

Can you advise me where I is going wrong..  I bought 2 small Peace Lillys a while back but died...  So bought a larger one to have another go but now its starting to go brown...  couple of leaves , one of the flowers and 2 or 3 of the stamen..  I have tried various ways of watering it... soaking it and letting the water run off...  a little bit of water in a dish to soak up very 2nd day and waiting for the leaves to droop but cant get the hang of that...

  • What I can see of your peace lily looks fine to me. The leaves are dark green and glossy and it has several flower stems. The flowers don't last for ever and  old leaves also die eventually, but that is normal. Just cut them off for tidiness.

    Your plant is perhaps a little far from the window though, as the greenish flower spathes suggest it may be struggling somewhat for light.

    As Peace Lily flowers age, they turn greenish in colour.

    They are a shade-loving plant.  The last thing they need is to be in a window.
