Keeping Water Lily::Mangkala Ubol>>Flower Page 2>>18/07/2016
Since long, I want to keep lilies. Last year started with one blue lily known as Nymphaea midnight caprice. This I decided to source more lilies.
First step is to choose suitable pot for keeping lillies. After reading, I choose a 12 inch height, plastic pot.
The Pot [/align]
Second step was to decide about substrate. First I thought to keep lillies in aquarium substrate. But finally I choose DIY substrate. This substrate is a mixture of local soil, construction sand and cow dung. All of these has been covered by gravels.
Substrate in Pot Finally filled with water My son taken a photo of me. [/align]
Comments and Suggestions are most welcome.
In coming days I am receiving some more Lily.

Some got in exchange with other plants.
A single pot costs around 800 to 1000 Rs.
