Water lily flowering time

Water lilies usually bloom in the summer, specifically around May to August, and the flowering period can last for 3 months. They will emit a faint fragrance when blooming. They prefer light, so during normal maintenance, they need to maintain sufficient sunlight, which is more conducive to flowering.

How to grow water lilies and make them bloom

1. Light : Water lilies prefer high temperature environments. They must be exposed to sufficient sunlight when being maintained. They must receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight every day. If the indoor light is not good, they need to be moved outdoors for maintenance. They can only bloom when there is sufficient light.

2. Fertilization : When preparing the potting soil for water lilies, you need to apply some base fertilizer appropriately, and apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizers several times before flowering. This is more beneficial for flowering and can allow it to bloom more flowers.

3. Water : When caring for water lilies, be sure to use clean water. If it is tap water, it needs to be dried before use, otherwise it will affect the growth and development of the root system.

4. Temperature : Water lilies prefer a warm growing environment, so the temperature needs to be kept between 15-30 degrees. It has a strong ability to withstand high temperatures, so there is no need to worry about the high temperature environment in summer. However, temperature control measures need to be taken in winter, and it is best to keep it above 13 degrees.
