How to grow water lilies on the balcony and what to pay attention to

1. Can it be grown on the balcony?

Water lily is an aquatic plant. If you want to grow it at home, you need a water tank. Because it occupies a relatively large space, if you don’t have a yard at home, you can grow it on the balcony. It needs light, and it needs to be kept where it can receive sufficient light, so as to meet its growth needs and ensure that the flowers open smoothly. Note that if the water lily is newly planted, do not keep it directly on the balcony. At this time, the growth is still relatively fragile. If it is exposed to direct sunlight, the plant will be burned, dried up, and even directly die.

2. How to maintain

1. Soil: This is the basic factor to maintain growth. You can directly dig pond mud. This kind of soil has better nutrition and can provide nutrients to maintain subsequent growth. If conditions do not permit, you can use sand and clay to mix it with a small amount of organic fertilizer, which can also meet the growth needs.

2. Water use: When caring for water lilies, the water quality must also be ensured to be good. Use clean, pure water that is not too turbid. You can use tap water, but you have to dry it in the sun before use. This will increase the water temperature and evaporate the chlorine in it, so it will not affect the plants.
