Flourishing in the Indian Climate:

The Sweet Angel thrives in the warm climate of India, making it a perfect addition to ponds and water features across the country. To ensure optimal growth, provide the following conditions:

• Sunlight: At least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily is crucial for abundant blooming. A south-facing location is ideal.
• Water Depth: Plant the rhizome in a minimum of 12-18 inches of water, allowing the lily pads to float freely on the surface. Adjust depth based on your container and the mature size of the plant.
• Water Temperature: The Sweet Angel prefers warm water, ideally within the range of 70-85°F (21-29°C). This is typically found in the Indian summer months.
• Water Quality: Clean, still or gently flowing water is essential. Avoid stagnant water which can lead to disease. Regular water changes may be beneficial. Avoid excessive chlorine or other chemicals.
• Soil: Plant the rhizome in rich, loamy soil specifically formulated for aquatic plants. Ensure good drainage in the container, preventing waterlogging.

Special Care for a Sweet Angel:

While relatively low-maintenance, the Sweet Angel benefits from attentive care:

• Fertilization: During the active growing season (spring through fall), utilize a slow-release aquatic plant fertilizer to encourage vigorous growth and prolific flowering. Follow the fertilizer's instructions carefully.
• Pest and Disease Control: Inspect the plants regularly for signs of pests (aphids, snails) or diseases (root rot). Treat any issues promptly with appropriate organic or chemical controls, taking care to follow the instructions precisely.
• Winter Protection: In colder regions of India, protect the rhizome during winter by covering the pond or removing the rhizome and storing it in a cool, moist place until spring. This step is typically needed only in higher altitude regions.

The Sweet Angel Water Lily is more than just a plant; it's a statement of tranquil elegance, transforming your water garden into a haven of peace and beauty. Order yours today and experience the magic.
