Behold the Maa Wanee, a captivating water lily that will transform your pond into a breathtaking spectacle.

This particular cultivar stands out for its unique color and elegant form.

A Jewel for Your Indian Garden:

The Maa Wanee thrives in the warm, sunny climate of India. To cultivate this beauty, aim for the following conditions:

• Sunlight: At least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily is ideal. Choose a location in your garden that receives maximum sun exposure, especially during the peak hours. Southern exposure is often preferred in India.

• Water: Plant the Maa Wanee in a pond or container with a minimum depth of 12 inches (30 cm) of still or slow-moving water. Maintain water clarity by regularly removing any decaying matter or excessive algae.

• Water Temperature: The Maa Wanee prefers warm water. While it can tolerate some temperature fluctuations, consistently cool water can inhibit its growth and blooming.

• Soil: Use rich, nutrient-dense aquatic soil for optimal growth. You can use a specialized aquatic planting mix available from garden centers. Ensure the soil is slightly acidic to neutral (pH 6.0-7.5).

Special Care for a Luxurious Bloom:

• Container: Use pots or containers with a minimum 30 to 36 inches in diameter and 18 inches in depth. Fiber, plastic, or concrete containers are suitable, as they retain heat.

• Fertilization: During the growing season (spring and summer), regularly feed your Maa Wanee with a slow-release aquatic plant fertilizer to promote lush growth and abundant blooms. Follow the fertilizer instructions carefully to avoid over-fertilization, which can harm the plant.

• Pest and Disease Control: Monitor your water lily regularly for pests or diseases. Treat any infestations promptly using appropriate organic or chemical control methods. Prevention is key; maintaining good water quality minimizes pest and disease issues.

• Wintering (in colder regions): If you live in a region with colder winters, you may need to take precautions to protect your Maa Wanee during the dormant season. This could involve bringing the container indoors or providing additional insulation.

The Unique Allure of the Maa Wanee:

The Maa Wanee boasts large, striking blooms with a captivating blend of lavender-purple petals that gently unfurl to reveal a vibrant crimson-pink central disc. This stunning color combination is its signature appeal, setting it apart from other water lilies. The plant's substantial size and profuse blooming nature create a truly impressive display in any water garden. Its beauty isn't merely aesthetic; the Maa Wanee also adds a serene and calming atmosphere to your outdoor space, a perfect addition for yoga gardens or tranquil meditation areas.
