Dwarf Lily | Nymphphaea rubra

Great little plant

Easy to grow it’s doing well in a low tech tank..

Quarentine your plants!

Always remember to quarantine your plants, the lily that came had devastating snail leeches on it, so prepare to quarantine it. The actual plant was fantastic though. I was worried, but after adding into my tank it has been growing super well! I have one large light above my 20 gallon tall, and with no CO2 this lily has been thriving! Only a few leaves have melted off, but many more have been growing.

Failed to grow

Unfortunately it never grew after placing in tank. Maybe my fault but not sure. Don't know if it is because I have a gravel substrate but the tank has been establish for several years. Sprouted a couple of small leafs after planting but they eventually wilted and died.
