You should know peace lilies are propagated not through cuttings, like most plants. This lovely plant is propagated by division. Then, you must know the best time for peace lily propagation. Because the difference in region and season will affect the life of new plants from propagation.

Peace lilies can be propagated by division. Make sure to choose a healthy and mature peace lily plant. At least, the plant appears to have one large clump of stems, surrounded by smaller clumps. Before dividing the clumps, you can water the plant for an hour or two.

Gently remove the plant from the pot. Pulling hard will damage the roots of the peace lily plant. You can use a tap-shake method to get it out of the pot. Then, use a clean and sanitized knife or scissors to cut the rootball and make sections. Separate the clump from the mother plant (where the roots are more mature and the part that flowered last). Cut and separate slowly. Some can be separated by hand.
