Hi, my peace lily is looking good overall but the flower has gone all brown - I think I let too much sun get to it over a couple of days. What should I do? Cut it off?

Yes you should cut the flower off. It will never recover but your plant will keep attempting to make it live again. So to conserve energy for the next bloom and overall growth, cut the spent bloom away.

cut it as low on the actual stem as you can without cutting into the leaf. Good luck.
