Love your waterlilies, much later in the year, there will be white ones appearing.
At long last we have temperatures in the teens, so the snow is gone.
I find this forum pesky, every time you touch something ads appear. I resent the ones that cover the photos, even if only briefly.
Keep posting your lovely flowers, at least I enjoy them.

Thanks Inga. Funny, I don't get ads appearing. I wonder if they only have ads for North America. I have white ones but this year they're not doing well. In fact most of the waterlilies have had a hard time this year with something eating them. Just this morning I found the flowers had been chewed off one of my day flowering ones. Only a couple of half chewed petals left floating on the water.

Hi

Ah the queen of flowers!! usually hear that title for Orchids or roses but to me the WL are more spectacular I repotted mine too early this year ,had a cold spell and they were set back but are recovering nicely

I often have trouble with "chewers " Afraid of poisoning the water so can't use sprays ,fortunarely they outgrow them?? lol

Inga I dislike the ads but understand the need to make money?? At least they pay for the service?? Would assume the reason it changed hands was revenue was falling?? So many websites are making gazillions but I'll bet not this one If they start to charge I'm gone !! lol gary

Mine are just sitting in the bottom of the ponds (and my dam). The day flowerers are tough and can stay there when the water dries out and the soil becomes baked hard in the sun. The night flowerer can cope with drying out if the dry season is short. Mostly I put the night flowerer tubers in a bag with leaves and they keep until the next wet season. I also have some smaller permanent ponds where I put some tubers and they keep growing right through the dry season. When the wet season rains come I just pull up some tubers and put them in the non-perennial ponds as they fill from the rains.
