After two or three weeks, you should see signs that the plant has settled in leaves perking up, new growth, etc. During this adjustment period, be careful not too overwater, as the roots may not yet be working at full capacity and will therefore be more susceptible to root rot.

The same growing conditions should be mimicked to grow Peace Lilies as an outdoor plant. With the lush green foliage, Peace Lilies serve as a wonderful ground cover in a shady spot of your outdoor garden. You should plant them in a position where they can be easily moved and protected from winter damage. Peace Lilies do not go through dormancy.

Therefore, they can be planted at any time of the year. Once you are finished decorating your outdoor space with young Peace Lilies, the next step is to care for them. For light, outdoor Peace Lilies prefer partial or deep shade.

Make sure direct sunlight never falls on your plant, as it will burn the foliage. The leaves usually start browning in the middle due to sunburns. However, they can easily tolerate few hours of morning or evening sunlight. I would recommend keeping them in dappled shade, as this lighting setting closely relates to their native shady environment on forest floors. To maintain the neat appearance of the foliage, prune your plant regularly.

But always ensure you use disinfected tools for pruning. In cooler climates peace lilies can be planted in pots outdoors and taken indoors when the weather starts to cool down. The best location to plant peace lilies outdoors is a sheltered spot with dappled sunlight or early morning sunlight.

The flowers are actually tall white bracts, known as spathes and they last for one to two months before turning brown. You can remove the spent flowers by using pruning shears or scissors to cut the flower stem at the base of the plant. Prepare the soil before planting by digging in some broken down compost or soil improver. Indoor peace lilies can be planted out in the garden but they need some time to adjust to the new environment.

You can harden the plants off by placing them outdoors for a few hours each day to get them used to the different conditions before planting them.
