Hi all, I have tried searching but am coming up with nothing on this subject. I have my first peace lily and I love it. My question is do I cut the blooms after they die off and if so how far down?

Thanks so much,

Tracy [dunno]

Hi Tracy,

The flower stalk won't rebloom after the spathe dies so go ahead and cut them off. I cut mine near the base simply for cosmetic reasons.
