you can plant them in yourpondon a shelf so the roots can
extend throughout hepondand become a natural filter for the
sediment. if you must put it in a pot then place it a bit deeper in
thepond. dont know much about canadian springs but do know lilies
are pretty hardy no matter where you put them

==========================
I don't know where you live but water lilies can become a serious pest in

I understand. But you have a liner pond. If they jumped the pots they'd be
easy to remove as they are in my lined ponds. Some ponds here in TN that
are covered in waterlily leaves are soil bottom ponds where the lilies took
over. I know one has no fish (the woman said).... the other two, I don't
know. My lilies are all in pots either on shelves or on milk crates.
