QuestionQUESTION: When I purchased my plant it always had white blooms/flowers. In the last few months, many of the blooms were green and now they are all green. When I asked the vendor, she said she had had several customers with the same question but didn't know the answer. The plant has light from a northeast window; no direct sunlight.
ANSWER: Kay,
They turn green as they are fading. You are better off clipping them off at the base of the stem. If they are allowed to go to seed the plant will stop producing blooms. Fertilize the plant regularly with blooming plant fertilizer to keep it blooming. Good luck.

QUESTION: But, they are never white in the first place; blooms are green in color from beginning to end.
Great service; really appreciate your help!
AnswerKay,
Then you have or had 2 plants in the pot, they look nearly the same, a spathiphyllum and a Chinese Evergreen. In the beginning it was the spathiphyllum that bloomes and now it is the Chinese Evergreen that is blooming. It's blooms are green and are exactly like the spath blooms. Again, fertilize both plants regularly with blooming plant fertilizer to keep them blooming. They can stay in one pot. You can Google Chinese Evergreen and click on images to see pictures of the plant to compare it to what you have. Good luck.
