🌱 Planting Tips

• Ideal Locations: Shallow ponds, water gardens, container water features, or even wetland margins.

• Planting Method: Submerge pots with rich aquatic soil so the crown of the plant sits just above the waterline. It can also be planted directly into muddy pond bottoms.

• Spacing: Plant 12–18 inches apart to allow room for spreading.

💧 Care Instructions

• Water Depth: Keep the crown slightly above the water; allow for seasonal fluctuation in depth.

• Fertilizing: Use a slow-release aquatic fertilizer during growing season for optimal blooming.

• Pruning: Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves regularly to promote fresh growth.

• Wintering: In colder zones, the plant dies back but regrows from tubers in spring. In containers, tubers can be overwintered indoors if needed.
