How to grow water lilies well

Three ways to grow water lilies

Method 1

This is the laziest method, which is to throw it directly into the water. Because the water lily floats on the water surface, the flower will not sink to the bottom of the water unless some weight is applied to it. Therefore, this method of growing it in water is not ideal for its ornamental value. However, even so, there is no need to worry that it will die. This growth method is relatively slow and the shape of the flower is not good.

Method 2

Tie something heavy, such as a stone, to the water lily to make it sink to the bottom of the water, and then place it in a sunny place. After that, you don't have to worry about anything happening because it is completely immersed in water. After a week or two, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Method 3

Place sand in the basin, but even then, tie something heavy to the lily pad to keep it sinking to the bottom. However, it is not recommended because it is relatively troublesome to take care of. Besides, this method is more suitable for growing lotus but not water lilies. If you have tropical fish at home, you can plant them in a water tank. The water temperature in the water tank is higher than that outdoors, so flower buds will grow several months earlier than the normal growth cycle.
