Hi guys!! Please read this before you comment anything. Many of you have been saying this is lotus and not water lily. You’re absolutely right. But the procedure to grow water lily and lotus is the same. So this video is just a demonstration of growing both using the same method. And that’s what is mentioned in the title too. Hope it’s understandable. Thank you 😊

I live on a small subsidiary where the water level changes depending on the rock bottom. Lots of smaller gravel and silt are among the bottom with some soil consistency. The water temp stays basically 55 degrees but might rise little during the summer months. It is miles of spring feed water and very clean. Will the water lillies survive this type of environment? The video was very informative, and i enjoyed it. Tks for the info.

@AquaticGardenbyTwinWinds Жыл бұрын

Thank you for your feedback! Water lilies are resilient plants and can adapt to a wide range of water temperatures. With the water temperature staying around 55 degrees and the clean, spring-fed nature of your water, water lilies should be able to thrive in this environment. Enjoy their beauty in your aquatic space!

@@jnanamudras yes , Water lily seeds are much smaller than lotus seeds.They range from the size of a pea (Victoria , eurayle fox) to tiny seeds like that of portulaca. Their seed coats are not severed to promote germination. But growing water lily from seeds is very tricky, because they are very delicate. So better to propagate vegetatively from tubers , rhizomes or leaves(only in viviparous tropicals) or buy a plant .It is also better to start lotus from tubers rather than seeds. Whether it be water lily or lotus, there is no guarantee that one will get the same or similar plant as that of its parents , if grown from seeds. But , if you want to start water gardening , start with water lilies . Since they are easy and comes in a variety of colours and then go to lotus , etc.

Yes, it is possible to plant water lily seeds in a pond that is 3 feet deep. Water lilies can thrive in various depths of water, including shallow areas. While they prefer to grow in water that is around 1-2 feet deep, they can adapt to deeper water as well. However please make sure the seeds are in contact with the soil so they can germinate and take root. We hope this helps !
