Can I take a Peace Lily Plant that has been inside of my home for the past 8 months and plant it outside? Will the Peace Lily Plant survive outside?

Jenni,
The peace lily is typically considered a houseplant. In warm humid regions, the peace lily(Spathiphyllum) can be planted in a shady border. However there isn't a region in the United States where the peace lily can survive outside year round.
Peace lilies are found naturally in damp tropical forests in places like Costa Rica, Panama, Columbia and Venezuela.
My suggestion if you want it outside would be to place the potted peace lily in the shadeduring the warm months but take it inside during the cold months.

It depends on where you live. Peace lilies can not survive in plant hardiness zone above zone 9. Therefore you would need to live in a zone 9 or 10. In the United kingdom those zones can be found along parts of the coast line of Ireland, Scotland and England. You would need to check your local hardiness map to determine exactly what your hardiness zone is.
