Do you want to bring something new to your garden? Almost everyone has plants in the ground at home, but water lilies are still a less common water crop, yet they have many advantages. For example, you will never have to water them again. Here’s how to grow it!
Choosing the right plant
Many oxygenating plants remain under the surface of the water and have very little interest. However, they are useful in aquariums because they bring oxygen to the fish. If you decide to embellish a pond or a water feature at home, choose species that have a submerged part and an emerged part with flowers. For example the Water Lily!

Its flowering starts in summer and lasts almost all the Autumn. It multiplies by floating seeds too. It is best planted in a private pond or lake because of its overgrowth in the wild.
