Flourishing in Indian Gardens:

The Purple Immutabilis thrives in the warm, sunny climate of India. To ensure your water lily blossoms to its full potential, provide the following:

• Sunlight: At least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily is crucial for optimal growth and flowering. Choose a location in your pond or water garden with ample exposure.

• Water Depth: Maintain a water depth of 12-18 inches (30-46 cm) above the rhizome. This ensures the leaves and flowers can comfortably reach the surface.

• Water Quality: Clean, still or gently flowing water is preferred. Regular monitoring and occasional water changes will help prevent algal blooms and maintain a healthy environment for your lily.

• Soil: A rich, muddy soil is ideal. You can enhance your pond's bottom with aquatic planting soil enriched with organic matter to support robust growth.

Special Care for Exceptional Blooms:

While relatively low-maintenance, the Purple Immutabilis benefits from a few extra touches:

• 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: A slow-release aquatic plant fertilizer will promote lush foliage and abundant blooms. Follow the instructions carefully to avoid over-fertilizing.

• Pest and Disease Control: Keep an eye out for common water lily pests and diseases. Regularly inspect the leaves and flowers for any signs of damage. Prompt treatment, if necessary, can prevent widespread problems.

• Winter Protection: In colder regions of India, you may need to take measures to protect the rhizomes from freezing temperatures during the winter months. This might involve covering the pond or relocating the rhizome to a frost-free environment.

The Purple Immutabilis is more than just a water lily; it's a statement piece, transforming your pond or water garden into a breathtaking oasis. Order yours today and experience the magic of this extraordinary aquatic jewel.
