A pond in the garden is lovely. It not only attracts animals, it is also perfect as a design element and you can do a lot for a great look. It becomes even more beautiful when you plant water lilies, which transform the water surface into a colorful sea of flowers with their blossoms. But not every water lily blooms the way you want it to.
If it doesn't, then read our tips and solutions to make water lilies bloom splendidly:
- She doesn't get enough sun. Water lilies should get at least six hours of sun a day. Only then do they really unfold and bloom the way you imagine.
- The water should not be too shallow. The deeper the better. If they don't flower and only produce leaves, that could be a reason.
- Fountains and fountains are also a thorn in the side of the water lilies. Constantly sprinkling them with water isn't exactly beneficial.
By the way: If the water surface is too densely populated with water lilies and the leaves stand up, then it's time to take out the plants and divide them.
