How to Care
Grow in undisturbed water in full sun. Plant in baskets in loamy soil with crowns just below soil surface and covered with pea shingle. Position basket so that it is covered by 15-25cm of water; as the plants establish lower the plants to twice the initial planting depth. Feed during the growing season with aquatic fertiliser at the manufacturer's recommended rate.
Propagate by division of rhizomes or offsets in summer, place pots in shallow water until established.
Deadhead and remove yellow leaves regularly

How to Care
Water lilies flourish in still water, so best not plant them near a pond pump or fountain, particularly where the water can splash onto their leaves.
Initially the pot should be placed so the leaves float on the surface of the water. As the plant matures, gradually lower the plant deeper into the pond until the desired depth has been reached.
You can re-pot lilies into a larger aquatic pots in order to give it more space to grow.
