Hardy Red Water Lilies - The leaves are round unlike tropical lilies which are jagged or notched
on the edges. Horticulturally, water-lilies are divided into two main categories: hardy and
tropical. Hardy water lilies bloom only during the day, but tropical water lilies can bloom either
day or night, and are the only group to contain blue-flowered plants. The viability of water lily
seeds is exceptionally long, around 2000 years. 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.
