6. Fertilizer: Peace lilies are not heavy feeders, but can benefit from a monthly application of a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer during the growing season.

7. Pruning: Remove any dead or yellowing leaves as they appear. You can also prune the plant to control its size and shape.

8. Propagation: Variegated Spathiphyllum can be propagated through division. Gently separate the plant into smaller sections and plant them in separate containers.
