🌿 Citrus Twist Hardy Water Lily Proper Planting and Care

• Planting Depth: 6–18 inches from soil level to water’s surface

• Container Size: Minimum 12–14 inches wide (larger pots encourage more flowers)

• Soil: Use heavy loam topsoil (never bagged mixes, compost, or gravel)

• Sunlight: Full sun, with at least 6 hours of direct, strong midday light daily

• Division: Divide annually or as needed to prevent overcrowding and maintain blooming strength

🌱 Citrus Twist Hardy Water Lily Fertilizing Schedule

• Fertilize on the 1st and 15th of each month during the growing season (spring–fall).

• Use 3–4 Waterlily World Fertilizer Tabs per feeding, pressing them 3–4 inches deep into the soil near the rhizome.

• Consistent feeding ensures steady flowering and healthy foliage.

✅ Do’s and Don’ts for Citrus Twist Hardy Water Lily

Do:

• ✅ Plant in full sun for reliable blooms.

• ✅ Use loam soil and a wide container for healthy rhizome growth.

• ✅ Fertilize regularly during the growing season for maximum flowering.

• ✅ Allow room for pads to spread across the water’s surface.

Don’t:

• ❌ Do not let the waterlily dry out when unpacking—plant immediately on arrival.

• ❌ Do not use bagged compost soils, pea gravel, or stones—they float, rot, and starve the plant.

• ❌ Do not overcrowd. Floating plants or neighboring lilies will block sunlight and reduce blooms.

• ❌ Do not plant too deep—deeper than 20 inches reduces flowering.
