Default waterlilies and their pots, some potting notes :)

mine do fine across from the waterfall. the water is undulating, I am

sure there is
spray on the leaves. but it isnt chlorinated water like from a sprinkler.
I only have solid containers, no slits, no holes and my lilies do great.

my limiting
factor is sunlight and space, so I only have two lilies. this year looks

like I am
moving one of them to my mother's pond since my texas dawn is so huge.

Being a cheapo DIY'er I use whatever I can get my hands on cheap. My potting
contianers range from recycled pots that I have bought landscaping in, to a
stack of waste baskets I found last year for a few cents a piece at a local
gadgets, crap you don't need and beyond store. As for media, I use a mixture
of pea gravel and larger rocks for all of my plants.
