Water lilly have I killed it?
« on: May 19, 2018, 19:48:26 »
About 10 days I planted the native water lilly Nymphea Lutar in my pond about 60-80 cm deep.
I cannot find it now, is it dead?  Did I plant it too deep (it was quite small) or can it develop from there?

I would of started it shallow and moved it deeper as it grew, if you have fish they may of unrooted it and it could be at the bottom of the pond.
you may be a king or a little street sweeper but sooner or later you dance with de reaper.

I don't have fish but I think that is what I should have done as I can not find it now.  Oh well, such is life.
