Thriving in Indian Climates:

The Tapowkeaw is well-suited to the warm and humid conditions prevalent across much of India. To ensure optimal growth and abundant blooms, consider these factors:

• Sunlight: This water lily demands at least six hours of direct sunlight daily. A south-facing location is ideal.
• Soil: Use any topsoil without cocopeat, although clayey soil is most suitable. Detailed planting & care guidelines are included with the plant. Please refer to the knowledge base & FAQ’s for more details.
• Water Depth: Plant at approximately 12-18 inches below the water’s surface. Adjust depth slightly based on the specific size of your water feature. Avoid placing the rhizome in overly deep water, as this can hamper growth.
• Water Temperature: Warm waters between 70-85°F (21-29°C) promote vigorous growth and flowering.
• Water Quality: Clean, relatively still water is crucial. Regular water changes or the use of a filtration system will help prevent algae growth and maintain water quality.

Special Care for your Tapowkeaw:

While relatively low-maintenance, providing some extra care will reward you with an even more spectacular display:

• Feeding: Use a slow-release aquatic plant fertilizer specifically formulated for water lilies. Follow the package instructions carefully – over-fertilization can lead to algal blooms.
• Pruning: Remove any decaying or yellowing leaves to prevent disease and maintain the plant's overall health. Deadheading spent blooms will also encourage more flowers.
• Winter Protection (In colder regions of India): In colder Indian regions, the Sumanee may enter a period of dormancy during winter. Reduce watering and fertilization during this time.
