Hi there! I inherited a peace lily
when a good friend passed away. I’ve had it now for about a month. I repotted it with miracle grow, perlite, and a little orchid bark in a pot 1/2” larger than its root ball. The roots were tightly woven together, so I gently loosened her all white roots. Not sure if lilly likes the new soil or not, but she doesn’t seem to be very healthy. She has brown and yellowing tips, which I trimmed, and holes and rips on a few leaves. She’s constantly droopy, and the new baby growth is browing at tips as well. Please help me to revive her. Any advice will do. I don’t want her to die for sentimental reasons. Thank you.
Other facts:
1. zone 7
2.Southern window exposure 12 feet away.
3.no direct sun exposure
4.fertilized once with bonide 10-10-10
5.good drainage holes in pot
6.sits on humidity tray

Peace Lily
Hello!
Of course, peace lily is an unpretentious plant, but it can be stress. Relocation, as well as a new owner ...
The best time for transplanting is the beginning of spring...
Your care for the plant is the right one. I think the plant will come out of stress gradually.
