Peace lilies also benefit from repotting or dividing when they outgrow their containers. Signs that a peace lily plant has outgrown its container include drooping less than a week after being watered and crowded, deformed leaf growth. If you are repotting, move the plant into a pot that is at least 2 inches (5 cm.) larger than its current pot. If you are dividing, use a sharp knife to cut through the center of the rootball and replant each half in its on container.
