Planting Instructions
- Seed Preparation: Scarify seeds by lightly sanding one end with a file until the inner white layer is visible. Soak in warm water for 24-48 hours until they swell.
- Sowing: Once sprouted, place seedlings in shallow water (2-4 inches deep) in a bowl or pond with nutrient-rich clay soil. Do not plant directly in potting soil.
- Water Depth: As plants grow, gradually increase water depth to 6-12 inches for healthy root development.
- Light Exposure: Requires full sun (6+ hours per day) to bloom properly.
- Germination Time: Sprouts appear within 5-10 days; leaves and roots develop within 3-4 weeks.
Care and Maintenance
- Watering: Maintain clean, still water. If grown indoors, change water every 5-7 days.
- Fertilizing: Use slow-release aquatic fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season.
- Winter Dormancy: In colder zones, allow the plant to go dormant. Move indoor containers to a cool, dark place or store tubers for the next season.
- Pruning: Remove yellowing leaves and spent flowers to encourage new growth.
Ideal Growing Conditions
- Outdoor Growth: Perfect for patio ponds, small backyard ponds, and balcony water gardens.
- Indoor Growth: Thrives in decorative water bowls near sunny windows.
