Feature
- The plant itself will help supply oxygen to the water while assisting in minimizing algae blooms
- Pre-planted in a weighted net bag to protect the tuber from being eaten by fish. Simply drop the plant in the desired place in the pond
- Water Lily Chromatella is winter hardy, and once placed in the pond it will survive harsh winters as long as the tuber remains below the ice level of the pond. Dormancy will end when the water warms
- Rounded olive-green leaves splashed with purple that fades with age characterize the Water Lily Chromatella. Sweet smelling canary yellow blossoms 6"-7" in diameter remain open longer than most other varieties of water lily. Also known as the "Golden Cup" due to its cup-shaped flowers, Water Lily Chromatella adds interest when placed among other varieties of water lilies in the pond or water garden. Chromatella adapts readily to any size pond or water garden and can even be grown successfully in tubs or barrels.
- Growing Instructions: Water lilies require sun to grow properly. They begin to bloom when water temperatures reach 60⁰ F, and will bloom year round in frost-free regions. Because they do not like heavy water movement, place them away from streams and waterfalls. To make planting easy, our water lilies come in a special drop and grow net bag, each containing the rhizome, rocks, and planting fiber. Simply remove the net bag from the plastic holding bag and drop it into a part of the pond deep enough to be below the ice line, if any. The depth of the water should not be less than 2 feet nor more than 4 feet. Fertilize in spring and summer, removing yellow leaves and spent flowers regularly
