Pond planting

The water lily planted in the pond should first empty the pond, then apply the base fertilizer on this basis, place the new pond mud, and then irrigate for many times. With the gradual growth of water lilies, water is gradually changed or increased. It is better to keep the water depth at 70-80cm. In winter, more irrigation should be added, which can reach more than 110cm. The root and stem of the whole water lily can absorb enough water, so as to survive the winter safely.

In particular, the water quality is required to be clean, or the leaves will rot. The depth of water is 30cm-60cm, and the loam rich in humus is required. The soil has strong fertility tolerance, and the underground stem needs to overwinter in the unfrozen soil.

2. Water lilies like places with high temperature and strong light, and the water temperature suitable for growing is 18-20 ℃. In winter, it should be covered or added with water to prevent cold. The temperature should not be lower than 4 ℃. It should be well ventilated. When the growing period is available, it should be kept in full sunlight. It should be exposed to direct sunlight for at least 6 hours every day. When the environment is shaded, the growth is relatively slow, and it is easy to see dumb buds.
