Nymphaea lotus (zenkeri) in container pond?
Has anyone ever tried Nymphaea lotus (zenkeri) bulbs (I believe the common
name is "Tiger Lotus Lily") in a small container pond? Apartment dweller here so I am limited to what I can do, which means small (half barrel at most) and not really a power source either so no water movement. I have been considering a water feature amongst my veggie planters for the spring. I ended up with a handful of Nymphaea bulbs in my quest to get some more Aponogeton crispus for my tanks (in fact a whole package of "aponogeton" bulbs turned out to be Nymphaea bulbs). Right now they're just sitting around because I couldn't use them in the tank, but I'm wondering if they'd do well in the water feature. If so, how many of them should I plant in say a half barrel container pond? I have 6 that seem to be viable. Needless to say I wasn't expecting to get lilies instead of Aponogeton, but I'm trying to make the best of it, heh. |
