I think that's what happens as the flowers age, nothing to worry about.

True--when they are almost spent, peace lily flowers do turn green. When mine do that, I just go ahead and cut them off so the plant won't have to support a declining flower. Beautiful lily you have there.

I also have a Peace Lilly. This was my first houseplant. When I first got mine it was covered with flowers. Now it has no flowers, but it is lush with beautiful leaves. I would love to see it bloom again. Is this a seasonal bloomer? I am quite happy with how lush and happy it is!

You don't need to cut it off, but if you want to, just cut it off near the base where it comes up from the leaves.
