The (usually) white flowers are growing/turning green. Is this noraml or not, and can I do anything to prevent it? TIA.

Hi, mine seem to do this as well so don't think there's anything to worry about - mine grow greenish then turn white. The older (and bigger) the plant has become, the longer they take to go white. Hope this helps.

Too much sunlight can cause problems with Spathiphyllum flowers - either making them green or stopping the plant from flowering at all. If you have it in full sunshine, try bringing it into a less bright part of the house.

The keep out of sunlight thing is definately advisable. Mine got moved into sunlight by dh and it became very sickly indeed. Mine now lives on a windowsill which never gets any direct sunlight and it is thriving...had had 3 flowers on it this year.
