Slow start but a stunning finish with Peace Lily
The first few months with Peace Lily were underwhelming. Almost no visible growth and I questioned my decision repeatedly. Then something shifted — I think getting wiping dusty leaves with a damp cloth to improve light absorption right was the turning point.

The propagation success I didn't expect with Peace Lily
I started with one Peace Lily and now have four, all from propagation. The process is straightforward once you understand checking soil moisture before watering rather than watering on a fixed schedule — something I picked up from trial and error rather than any guide.
