I picked up a lily, put it in my 60 gal. pond.
I woke up this morning to find the water all milky. I did a water
change, but the water was a gray milky color again.

Today when I got home from work I took the plant out, washed all the mud
out and left only the round bark and roots.
I took pea gravel, put the plant in a terra cotta flower pot, then put
it back in.
Do lily's have soil?
If so.
What kind of soil?
How deep?

2 questions that were not answered.
1. Do they have to have soil?
2. How deep or how far do they have to be from the water line?

No. I plant bare root - I just wire the tuber to a rock! I thought the
question _was_ in fact answered by the poster who said that some have
success...

2. How deep or how far do they have to be from the water line?


It all depends on the lilies. I've had some that did great down to 5'.
I've had dwarf varieties that shouldn't be more than a few inches below the
surface. Generally, I start dwarfs out at about 2" below the surface, and
lower them as they develop, to no more than 18" (sometimes as little as
6"). Larger varieties, I start at about 18" and lower them as their pads
start reaching the surface.
