✅ Do’s & ❌ Don’ts for Razzberry Hardy Water Lily

✅ Do

• Plant in full, unobstructed sun to achieve the best flower color and frequency.

• Use heavy loam soil and a wide, shallow container for steady growth.

• Fertilize regularly during the growing season for nonstop blooms.

• Divide rhizomes every 1–2 years to maintain vigor and bloom quantity.

• Provide open surface area for pads to spread and receive sunlight.

❌ Don’t

• ❌ Don’t use gravel, compost, or aquatic media — they block growth and suffocate roots.

• ❌ Don’t let the crown dry out — waterlilies must remain moist and should be planted immediately on arrival.

• ❌ Don’t plant too deep; Razzberry blooms best when shallower.

• ❌ Don’t allow floating plants or other lilies to shade Razzberry; direct sunlight is essential.
