Water lilies are the solution against algae in the pond. We have the perfect large or small water lily for every pond. A water lily is enormously important in the pond. The water lily leaf blocks the sun so the water heats up less quickly, reducing algae growth. The water lily leaf also provides a natural hiding place for fish and other underwater life. Our range of water lilies consists only of hardy varieties and you always have a 100% growth and flowering guarantee. For water lilies, I recommend a minimum of 1 basket per 0.5 to 3m². The amount needed per m² depends on how quickly you want to balance the pond and your visual requirements.

Frequently asked questions about water lilies
