Drop-N-Grow Lilies - Planting Tutorial

[@Mimi-uz2yg]

exactly what I need to know. Very informative! Thanks.

[@Toltecgrl]

I bought one like this and have had it sitting in my garage for two years lol It probably won’t grow anymore but I will put it in my pond and see what happens

[@Chalily]

There is no harm in trying. We have test them after storage for as long at 30 months. Some grow, some don't! Good luck.

Hi ur video bis gr8 ..how to prepare the water lily plant to send one place to another place..if it's distance of 4,5 dyas

[@gigisantos8830]

Hello. Thank you for coming up with this Drop and Grow. How long can they keep before putting it in a pond? I am thinking of having it sent to the Philippines. Hope to hear from you.

[@Chalily]

As long as they are not too hot or too cold, you can store them for 18 months

Sir,how to get in New Delhi, India water lily

[@HobbyAddictions]

I pulled my water lilies out to over winter in my green house, but when I pulled them out to repot they didn't have any roots, just a bulb. They both have a few very small (1/8 inch) green leaves, so I was wondering if it will come back or is it dead?. The root ball is solid.

[@thedailyvibes4033]

Where I can buy your violet/purple lotus lily? Do you ship worldwide?

[@Chalily]

We only ship in the USA. www.Chalily.com is where to purchase.

[@gsuneetanaidu2006]

Excellent

[@Chalily]

Glad you in enjoy the video!

[@nightgal58]

I have a pond with Kois. I’ve bought water lilies before, after a week, you see pieces of lilies floating. My Kois ate them. How can I prevent that in the future?

[@Chalily]

nightgal58 you will need to build a funnel around your lily so the fish can not access them

[@Goonies-xh3qr]

Our koi pulled our two new drop n' grow lilies from the planters. The roots/bulbs are now floating at the top of the water with the pads. Can we leave them float around in the pond this way without the main root being in a pot with soil? Thanks!

[@Chalily]

No, the tuber and roots need planted in the soil

[@rakeshchoahan]

Thanks sir To giving information about water lily plant

[@Chalily]

Thank you for the support

[@rwzmeinberg5048]

Excellent information , thanks

[@julierice4019]

By accident a friend pulled a water lilly out of our pond, please let me know what I should do. ❓

[@Chalily]

You should replant it! Here is a link to our planting tutorials playlist kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGitYqpqiq-Ll8U

[@pershop4950]

This could be why my lilies never really grew well. Based on instructions I've seen, it says the dormant lily can be put in as much as 12-24" of water. So I would do that, and not really get anything. But if it has a better chance to grow from being only 6" under at first, and then transferred deeper later, that is a good tip!

[@Chalily]

Per Shop This just gives them a little help. Make sure you fertilize with a good water Lily fertilizer, that is the most important step!

[@WordsForLess]

Nice follow-up to my purchase from Amazon. I had been youtubing other videos before my purchase yesterday - it was great to get your email just a day later (upon shipment of my lily)! Supplement your current video with some live pictures of a real lily in a small pot and in a large pot at various stages of growth. Also, think about adding two fertilizer pellets to the kit (or setting up your merchant account to advertise fertilizer, as well as with a container, for a nice bundle). Excited to see how the lily performs in my pond!

[@leighhamilton1057]

I just got my first water lily from your company and am so excited! I'm planting it in a large container made for water lily container planting, and am trying my hand at them before I sink a lot of money into an in-ground pond in our front yard. I watched your video and have planted my Drop-N-Grow lily on the back deck where it will get about 4 - 6 hours of sun a day during spring/summer and even into the early fall. My immediate problem is one "clump" of dirt that is growing two lovely green stems came out of the netting and soil package. I just sort of stuck it back in there. I hope I haven't killed it before it even gets a chance. Also, can I add fertilizer pellets to the water rather than poking them in the dirt? The pellets I have state "One pellet for every gallon of soil" but my one lily doesn't have a gallon of soil. I cut the pellet into fourths and stuck it in the dirt with my fingers crossed. Is it going to be okay?

[@Chalily]

It sounds like you made all the right choices. I think the lily will grow and bloom later this summer.

[@yadiracolon4049]

Where can I buy pre grown waterlilies like that ones ? Thanks

[@Chalily]

[@nazeemaesanagiri7754]

In which months a hardy water lily blooms ? How many flowers it will blooms ?

[@Chalily]

It would depend on your location. What city, country are you in?

[@gsuneetanaidu2006]

Can you make it available for us...if yes..what's the procedure

[@Chalily]

They are not in season this time of year. The will be available at our website chalily.com April - August each year.

[@stephenstewart7972]

That’s a great video. I am planting my lily in the bog filter for a stock tank used by ducks. They continually add “nutrients” to the water. That’s actually the reason I’m packing the big filters with plants. Do I still need to fertilize?

[@Chalily]

I love ducks, I grew up in the city of St. Louis and yet at one point had 3 pet ducks. They do offer lots of nutrients...however I would still plan on using some water lily fertilizer in the beginning just to help them get a jump start. Later in the season you may back off and see how the plants do. If they stop blooming, then add the fert. again on the normal schedule. Enjoy the lilies and thanks for the nice review!!!

[@crishamilton6678]

This is great info. Question: once you sink it into its final spot 3’ deep, how do you retrieve it to fertilize it?

[@Chalily]

I just hop into the pond. Or there poles to push the fertilizer from out side the pond

[@AkNetworking]

Nice

[@suemartsolf5218]

What size pot is that?

[@debraarizona4809]

This was a very interesting,and helpful video.👍 I am really impressed with the beautiful drop and go lilies.😀😀😀😁 Appreciate you showing how easy it is to plant,and fertilizer the lily. I really enjoyed this video,now I want to grow my own lily.🌱 I checked out your web site/store, it has really awesome things there fish, things for ponds,pumps filters,etc. Everything you need is there!!!😯😯😯 Thank you for sharing.👍🤗🤗

[@Chalily]

Debra Arizona, that for the kind words!!!

[@Chalily]

Thank you for the kind words

[@aristardust1620]

Thank you! I ordered the pink lily and so far no blooms but we have a lot of growth so it's looking promising! Question though, I have my lily in a big container if water fir my balcony "pond" but so far lily is the only thing in there. I noticed today theres a bunch if little red worms in the water, did the lily come with worms in it? Theres no other way I can see how they got in there. Are they ok to be in there? Are they a pest like snails can be? Just want to make sure I'm going everything I can for my lily. Thank you!

[@Chalily]

Sounds like you have what are called blood worms or some folks call them filter worms. They come from god, they just show up some how. They are not harmful, however they are helpful with keeping the water cleaner. Have you fertilized the lily to encourage blooms?

[@aristardust1620]

@@Chalily oh awesome, the worms can stay! I haven't fertilized it yet, but I definitely will to help encourage those blooms. I have a fish emulsion that I use with my other plants, I'm assuming that will be ok for the lily too? I also dont have a filter on my "pond" right now, do I need to do frequent water changes?

[@Chalily]

@@aristardust1620 We usually don't do very many water changes. I have not used the fish emulsion. Try it and please let me know what you think.

[@Fauntazee]

In addition, I'd like to say the 'red worms' could also be mosquito larvae. Are you using mosquito dunks to eradicate mosquitoes from breeding in the pond?

[@monok6191]

Where can we buy those Lilies? Thank u so much ^^

[@Chalily]

Our website. chalily.com

[@gtavtheavengergunnerlegend3340]

Lowes

[@hungchu4653]

How do u keep the mosquitoes away?

[@Chalily]

Most folks will add fish to their water garden, the fish will eat the mosquitoes

[@brookecardwell2288]

Mosquito dunks and/or mosquito bits. You can find them online and at lowes. Safe for everyone but those pesky skeeters!

[@kennguyen7570]

Thank you!

[@margaretmathis4775]

Are these the ones they sell at Lowe’s and Home Depot?

[@Chalily]

Margaret Mathis no, those a cheap knock offs. Visit Chalily.com for our best prices

[@ruthannlangley7737]

I bought two of those the yellow one and the pink one the yellow did not come up the pink one did why would this happen

[@Chalily]

Ruth Ann, could be many factors, tell me more about the site you had the lily.

[@TimVang0916]

Could you plant another one and do quick video updates on it?

[@Chalily]

Tim Vang good idea, will do this for the 2020 season

[@davidmiller1081]

Do you have banana water lily?

[@Chalily]

David, do you know the botanical name for banana water lily, I don't know of this common name in the pond world?

[@dglesterhardunkichud4017]

Remember: Fish poo = free fertilizer.

[@Chalily]

We still like to supply fertilizer tabs, to insure even more blooms!

[@fredfrond6148]

D'Glester Hardunkichud you need bacteria in the system to break down the fish poop into a usable for for the plants.
