Hardy Water Lilies - Hardy lilies perform many functions around the watergarden. Besides being
very beautiful and fragrant they provide shade and cover from predators for pond Koi. They absorb
excess water-born nutrients from the water and also if you have enough of your watergarden covered
with their leaves they act as an insulator preventing rapid temperature fluctuations of the water
due to extreme day and night temperature fluctuations.
These stunning plants with rich vivid colors are the showpiece for
your watergarden. The hardy water lily with its profuse and extravagant blossoms is a winter hardy
or perennial plant available from us starting in March and continuing through September. Lilies come
in a variety of colors and sizes and once established bloom continually all summer long.
Hardy lilies can be easily distinguished from their tropical
counterparts in that the leaves are smooth around the edges. Hardy water lilies grow best in a
generous amount of heavy garden soil, avoiding too much organic matter unless it has been well
composted. Even the heaviest clay soils will work fine with the addition of a little sand and
fertilizer. Depth should be maintained between 6" to 18" when first transplanted and then once
established can be grown from 12" to 30" deep depending on the variety. Lilies are shipped to you
bare-root.
