Jade, "Low" flowers isn't anything you should worry about. They don't always have flowers that are "tall." Mine has flowers of varying heights, some of which are "low" as you are showing on yours. As to whether to repot or not, you can repot whenever (they don't care being repotted when blooming... at least mine never have). Many 'Peace Lilies' are given some sort of chemical to induce blooming. They're more likely to sell in the store with blooms. That being said, sometimes you'll find a weird 3 "spathed" flower (one of my Peace Lilies had that) or other abnormalities with the flowers. The chemical wears off so don't worry. If you do decide to repot, I would wait about a week to allow your plants to "adjust" to your home or wherever you decide to put them. There are numerous "schools" of potting mixes, so you should research them before you decide what you'd like to use. The best thing to look for is soil that doesn't hold moisture for too long. You want the roots to be able to breath, so water retentive soil is not good. I'm not telling you to use Al's gritty mix, but that's just one you can find on these forums (it's actually a "soil-less" mix that you make yourself). I use Miracle Gro Cactus & Succulent soil for my plants and add rinsed perlite for added drainage. Whatever works for you, I say. Just remember when you repot, to not allow for too much room around the rootball (especially if you have water retentive soil). They say you can have a large pot with the gritty mix and be fine, but I don't use it so I have to keep my plant pots on the small size (my mix doesn't dry out as fast as Al's mix would, but it's faster draining than any other potting mixes I've used). 'Peace Lilies' like to stay moist. Don't allow them to dry out too much, don't keep them wet either. How often you water will depend on your soil, size of the pot, and lighting. I hope this information is helpful. Planto

Here is a leaf from 2011, That is a one gallon bottle to the left for a size reference. You can see an inflorescence growing to the left and under the leaf. I don't have any pictures of it as it currently is. It is in my studio so next time I go over there I'll try to remember to take one although now it is mostly a bare stem about four or five feet long with a couple feet of stem with leaves on the end. Which I think is a natural growth pattern for wild type philodendrons. Purp; Just cause you don't know about manual pollination is hardly a reason not to try. It would be interesting to see what you could do with this plant.

It maybe you have a thrip problem.... Flower Thrips (Frankliniella tritici): Flower thrips and various other thrips species are serious pests of daylilies. Thrips are slender, dark-colored insects, with fringed wings. Adults are less than 1/16-inch in length. To see these fast-moving pests, you need a magnifying lens. Thrips are typically found on leaves and between flower petals. Both adults and nymphs (immature insect stage resembling the adult, but smaller) feed by scraping surface cells to suck plant sap. When they feed on flower buds, the flower may die without opening. With a light infestation, their feeding causes leaves to have silvery speckles or streaks. With severe infestations, leaves and flowers are stunted and distorted and may turn brown and die.

All daylilies are edible. But check for the botanical name, Hemerocallis fulva, or any of its cultivars. Culinary Uses: The young green leaves are edible raw or cooked. Older leaves become fibrous. Tubers are also edible raw or cooked and have a nutty flavour. Young tubers are best, though the central portion of older tubers is also good. Steam or boil the tubers as a potato substitute, or toss them raw onto a salad instead of croutons. The flowers can be eaten raw or cooked. The petals are thick and crunchy, making very pleasant eating raw, with a nice sweetness at the base because of the nectar. They taste somewhat like fresh peas. They can be fried for storage and used as a thickener in soups and stews, or used as a relish. Leaves and young shoots can be cooked and used as a substitute for asparagus or celery. Take small shoots under 15cm, strip away the larger leaves, saute in a little garlic and oil, add raw to salads, or simply steam and drench in butter for a nice, crunchy treat. Warning: Large quantities of the leaves are said to be hallucinogenic. Because of the acrid nature of the green foliage, some experience nausea, diarrhoea and vomiting after eating raw plant parts. Such people will not be affected if the plant is cooked. Eating excessive amounts of raw flowers may cause diarrhoea. Daylily Bud Saute 2 dozen daylily buds, white bases removed 1/2 cup flour 1/4 cup olive oil 3 eggs pinch of nutmeg salt and pepper I clove garlic, finely chopped Saute the garlic in a little olive oil. Beat eggs, mix in enough flour to make a thin batter. Add the garlic, salt and pepper, and nutmeg. Add a teaspoon of milk if the batter is too thick. Dip the buds in the batter and saute until golden brown. Daylily flowers can be stuffed, or added to soups and vegetables dishes. They can be boiled, steamed or added to stirfries. Add them to salads, or coat with batter and fry. Daylily leaves taste a little like creamed onions. Choose young leaves for best flavour. Add to soups, vegetable dishes and stirfries. Day Lily Pork 3/4 cup onion rings 3 tablepsoons butter 1 clove garlic, mashed 8 thin slices of pork 1 tablespoon cornflour 2 tablespoons soy sauce 1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger 1 tablespoon Madeira wine salt and pepper to taste 1 1/2 cups chopped day lilies Saute onions in the butter until translucent. Remove onions from pan with a slotted spoon and set aside. To butter, add garlic and pork slices. Cook both sides of pork, and remove from pan, leaving the juices and butter within the pan. Stir cornflour into the soy sauce until smooth, add to the pan with ginger, wine, salt andpepper. Stir ingredients until thickened and clear. Add the chopped day lily and onions to the pan and stir 2 minutes over medium heat. Pour this mixture over pork and serve. Pasta with Day Lily Buds and Mushrooms about 185g oyster or shiitake mushrooms 1 heaped cup daylily buds, 2-3cm long 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 shallots, finely minced 1/2 teaspoon freshly chopped marjoram 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley salt and pepper to taste freshly grated parmesan cheese 500g fresh fettucinne noodles Put water on to boil while preparing vegetables. Tear mushrooms into large bite size pieces and remove stem of shiitakes. Rinse the daylily buds and pat dry. In large frypan, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute them about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and stir for 1-2 minutes. Add daylily buds and stir 2-3 minutes. Add the herbs and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover the pan and let stand over low heat for a few minutes while pasta is cooking. Drain the pasta, add it to the vegetables, and toss well. Add another tablespoon of butter or oil if necessary. Taste for seasoning and serve hot. Garnish with bread crumbs and parmesan if desired. Spiced Pickled Day Lily Buds 2 litres day lily buds, freshly boiled and drained 3 cups white vinegar 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon whole allspice 2 sticks cinnamon, 5cm long, broken up 10-12 whole cloves Rinse and drain unopened day lily buds; clip off any stem remnants. Put buds in a saucepan, add water barely to cover. Bring quickly to the boil, cover, and simmer 20 minutes. Drain. (At this point, the buds can also be served as a vegetable dish after adding salt, pepper, spices, etc. Or they can be stuffed with ricotta cheese and served.) Pack hot buds into 8 sterile 400ml preserving jars. Combine vinegar, brown sugar, salt, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Boil 3 minutes. Pour pickling solution over buds, distributing spices equally. Seal at once. Leave for a few weeks before using. Here is a link that might be useful: daylilies - harvesting etc
