Pre-Potted Helvola Waterlily

Plant Description

Pre-Potted Hardy, Helvola Waterlily is always a customer favorite with lovely, yellow, stellate blooms above heavily mottled foliage. This is considered a miniature or dwarf waterlily and is one of the very smallest waterlilies that we sell here at Pondmegastore. Pre-Potted Helvola Waterlilies are simply stunning in small ponds, tub or container gardens. This waterlily has a 16 - 24 inch spread once established and is a dependable bloomer that blooms readily all summer long. Pre-Potted waterlilies bloom quickly as they are already established in the pots when they arrive. (It takes bare root waterlilies about 6 weeks to become established and bloom.)

Planting Instructions

If you plan to keep your Pre-Potted waterlily in the original container for the first 60 days, simply place the pre-potted waterlily 4 - 10 inches beneath the surface of the water, in full sun. Add three, slow release fertilizer tabs each month for the first two months to keep this sunny little waterlily blooming! If you transfer to a larger container (8 - 14 inches in diameter) use loam soil, place 4 - 10 inches beneath the surface of the water and fertilize with 4 - 5 fertilizer tabs, once each month for the rest of the growing and blooming season.

Fertilizing Instructions

Fertilize your hardy waterlilies once each month with a slow release fertilizer.

*We use, sell and recommend 'Waterlily World Fertilizer Tabs' for optimum growth, best bloom and ease of use, simply press the tabs into the soil of your waterlily container.
