1. Processing seeds

Peel off some of the skin on the round end of the water lily seed, which will help promote its later growth and development.

When the buds of the water lily seeds grow to about 8 cm, they can be planted. Choose relatively fertile soil and place it in it, then water and fertilize regularly.

After planting the water lily, you need to pay attention to the time of fertilizing. Generally, you need to apply some fertilizer once a month. This can promote the rapid flowering of the water lily.
