How Exciting! The first lily bloom is always the best.

Hmmm, I think I'll go out to the pond
and lecture the lilies - come on, other
lilies are blooming, get your act together!!

Blooms? Really? I can expect blooms? I thought that was just marketing hype
on the label. I was happy to see the new leaves popping up...now I can look
forward to flowers too!!!

LOL........i get another leaf every few days. I am up to about 14.
Flowers would only be a bonus. It will be wierd if i ever see a bloom
in the water anyway!

to hit the surface of the water.

You weren't talking to me, but it's summer in north texas for the
next 5 months.

Got three up and open here in Missouri.
OK, one is in the basement pond under grow lights, but the other two
are in their natural environment.

I live north west of Atlanta. We have another lilly ready to bloom
also, and the one that had that flower has 3 more coming! Pretty darn
cool I gotta say!

I think I'm mostly just getting lucky, but these things are growing
like mad.

I just planted them all freely and they are in a 'soil' made of
accidentally added clay, decayed leaves and fish poop pumped on to
them :)

The lotus is doing great so far also. Who woulda thought planting it
in rocks and it would grow so well?

Oh yeah, the 'soil' is also ~2" size rocks to hold the plants. The
roots spread quickly. I'm not worried about invasiveness as we've got
different ponds to put different things in.
