    Hi All,

    I have a peace lilly on my office desk. The question is I re-potted the plant last summer but I did a bad job in that it was one sided in the pot. Now a few parts of the plant have died and I am left with one 'crown' to one side there is loads of room on the surface of the pot.

    My question is should I move it to a bigger pot? the roots are showing in the end but I would think only half the actual pot soil is in use.
    Would it be better to just turn the soil and re-position the plant?

    Thanks

    I think the least disruption to it would be best- so top up/level the soil and then face the good part of the plant away from the light (or at an angle) to encourage it to fill out. A picture would help though!

    You really should not have to do that much re-potting. Leave it be, cut out the dead bits, give it a feed and let it get on with it.
