To thrive, this water lily requires a minimum of eight hours of direct sunlight each day and prefers a water depth of 6–12 inches for optimal growth. Newly planted lilies should initially be placed in shallower areas to establish their roots effectively. The plant thrives in water temperatures of at least 72°F and is sensitive to colder conditions. For planting, a heavy, clay-based soil or aquatic compost is ideal, as lighter potting mixes may float away. Regular fertilization with aquatic plant tablets during the growing season is essential, particularly for new plants that benefit from higher nitrogen levels to promote root development. Lastly, positioning the lily in calm waters, away from disturbances like waterfalls, will enhance its growth and flowering potential.

The table below shows the estimated shipping and pick-up weeks for destinations to USA states. These dates can change depending on weather and how strong the plants are at that time.
For example, a wet spring will have many clouds leading to less sunshine. Thus, the plants may need a bit longer to grow strong enough for transplanting and transit. With the planet heating up, a warm spring may help the plants grow strong enough to ship before the dates in this table.
