water lilly question
I have a Lilly from last season. It is 2.5 foot under water, and still has
one leaf left from previous growth. I pruned the rest away after they deteriorated last late autumn Is it a wise move to remove this last pad, which hovers around 1 foot below the surface, in order to encourage the new seasons growth? Alex |

Leave it unless it's rotting. Definitely - it's an indicator leaf, and the plant needs that to know when to send up it's main growth. -- derek |
