It's currently in a pot (large enough) inside my house near a window. I water/Miracle Gro® it regularly, and have for years, but it doesn't seem to get any bigger. Any ideas?

I know this sounds odd, but you may want to try a smaller pot. Peace lillies like to be rather root bound. put it in the smallest pot the roots will all fit into. after a couple of months you should see some new growth coming in. a smaller pot will help you get the bushiness you want. transfer it to a larger pot once every year.also, peace lillies need a lot of water. check it every day. if the soil isn't wet, give it a little more. If you have a fish tank, try watering it with fishtank waterit is super high in nitrogen. If you do this you will be able to cut back on the fertilizer. most houseplants don't need to be fertilized more than once every month or two anyway. I hope this helps. Good luck
