According to plant experts at The Nunhead Gardener, placing a peace lily in one area in the home can cause serious damage.
"Peace lilies prefer bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions," the experts say. However, they must not be placed in "direct sunlight".

While peace lilies need light to thrive, too much sun will scorch their delicate foliage. This often results in brown or crispy leaf edges, which can make even a healthy plant look stressed. To keep your peace lily looking its best, choose a spot near a north or east-facing window.

If your plant is near a bright south-facing window, use sheer curtains to diffuse the harsh light.

Peace lilies naturally grow in the shady understory of tropical forests, so they’re not built for intense sun.

Aside from avoiding sunlight, humidity is also essential for keeping their leaves lush and green.

Mist the leaves regularly or place the pot on a tray filled with pebbles and water to raise humidity.

Another reason for browning leaves is under- or over-watering, so check the soil before adding water.

Let the top inch of soil dry out before watering again, and never let the roots sit in soggy compost.

A peace lily will usually droop to let you know it’s thirsty, but it perks up again quickly once watered.

Feeding your plant monthly during the growing season (which is now) will also support healthy, glossy growth.

Remove any brown leaves with clean scissors to keep the plant tidy and redirect energy to new growth. With the right care, peace lilies can bloom multiple times a year and live for many years indoors.

The Nunhead Gardener adds: "A happy peace lily is a wonderful way to bring life and calm into your home." So if you want to keep yours thriving, keep it out of the sun – and treat it like the tropical beauty it is.

Just a few small adjustments could be all your peace lily needs to stay lush, green and blooming. And the best part? It’s one of the easiest houseplants to bring back to life once you know what it needs.
