Water lilies may take time to establish after planting. Initial growth can vary depending on water temperature, sunlight, and pond conditions. Leaves or shoots may appear dormant upon arrival—this is normal for hardy tubers.
Certain aquatic plants may be restricted or regulated in some U.S. states. Always check your local and state regulations before purchasing or introducing plants into natural waterways. Never release aquarium or pond plants into the wild.
There are two main types of water lilies, tropical and hardy. The differences between tropical and hardy water lilies are a growing habit. Tropical water lilies don't do well in winter. Hardy water lilies, on the other hand, can tolerate the cold. Tropical water lilies tubers must be removed from the pond and stored in moist conditions to come back in the future years. In warm climates, they can remain in the pond.
