It is very easy and most practical to plant water lilies in aquatic planting baskets. These baskets are obtainable from good garden centers. They are open sided to allow for the expansion of the root system. Fill the basket with a good growing medium into which the lily is planted. Planting depth depends on the size of the lily. Miniature lilies should be planted in no more than 23cm/9in of water whilst small-growing ones will be happy in 30cm/1ft. Medium growing lilies will need up to 45cm/1,5ft and the most vigorous as much as 1m/3ft. Visit Design-Gardens.com for more exciting gardening news and info. Remember… Plant a garden and make the world a happier place! Alison
