Planting Instructions
Plant water poppies in small containers using heavy loam soil and place the container in the shallow end of your pond with tops of pots 2 – 6 inches beneath the surface of the water. Flowers grow 2 – 3 inches tall while leaves float on the surface of the water. Plant in full sun to part shade. Bring indoors before first frost and overwinter in tubs or aquariums with strong grow lights. Add a fertilizer tab to your potted plants to keep them green and blooming throughout the summer months, (June through September)! We recommend Waterlily World Fertilizer Tabs + Humates.
