    Unfortunately, these are very sensitive to cold weather, and may start to suffer below 60 degrees. In fact they are sensitive to any drastic change in temperature. It is best to bring this plant inside if you think it will get below this where it sits now.

    You can cut a peace lily completely back to the base if necessary, and this can promote regrowth. As long as the roots are not completely dead from lack of water, it should eventually grow back.

    It would be wise to fertilize this once per year. Make sure the soil almost dries out completely between waterings. You can try wettable sulfur and dolomitic lime. This can help clear out the soil, and bring the pH back to normal.

    The soil in the citronella geranium looks very wet. With those stones on top of the peace lily, It would be hard to know how much water it needs. Both of these look like a viral infection. It may be soon enough that you can cure this with peroxide. Just use one part peroxide to 3 parts water. Water into the soil as you would normally.

    Now about watering... You will only want to water when the top two inches of soil are completely dry. This will keep any infection from forming.

    Yes, repotting into a smaller pot is a good idea. Too-large pots create a risk of overwatering and root damage, since the plant will take much longer than before to use up all the water stored in the soil and the roots may end up sitting in water. Peace lilies are susceptible to overwatering, as described in this article:

    Also, please see this article to make sure your plant has the other conditions it needs:
