A hedge of 'Love & Peace'

I planted a row of LP behind spirea bushes and they are perfect for the spot. They are tall narrow and pillar like and rise well above the spireas. They are blooming fools and incredibly floriferous. Glossy leathery leaves that hold on untill late in the season. A wonderful HT for the colder zones and very hardy too...

Comments (8)Hi Both, thanks for replying. You're right, the soil was extremely soggy in some parts and dry in others so i removed as much as I could from the roots, i also split the plant as it was getting crowded. I used a generic houseplant soil from the local garden centre, i dont know anything about it's content. I also added some perlite in an attempt to minimise future soggyness. I've since transferred the plant into a more suitable pot with much better drainage, apart from that I dont know what I can do. The roots all seemed a good colour, perfectly healthy, I've never known shock last for this long....See MoreMy not so peacful Peace Lily
Comments (7)I've had mine go completely bone dry before finally beginning to wilt. This wasn't intentional, I only mention it to point out that the wilting isn't from underwatering. Peace lilies love water, but their roots also love fresh air, so drainage is a must. I would also advise giving it much brighter indirect sunlight. Just because some plants can tolerate low light levels, it doesn't mean that they prefer it that way. Never seek advice from a big box employee. For most of them, it's just a job; they're paid to be there. They don't care about providing accurate advice. You're better off seeking out someone shopping there that actually wants to be there. More often than not, that's where you'll find me, HaHa. I've certainly helped other shoppers whenever they needed it....See Morepaulieinct
