Water Lily Soil
This soil for water lilies is a culture substrate specially developed for water lilies and containing all the substances essential for the optimal develop-
ment of lily pads, the development of the flower and leaves. The special composition of the water lily soil promotes the efficient circulation of oxy-
gen-rich water along the tubers, while the Niedervenn peat (40%) and the blue clay (55%) promote the growth of the water lilies. The humic acids
contained in the peat naturally inhibit the proliferation of algae and the clay stabilizes it. A low level of sand serves to decompact the structure. To be
used for planting in combination with a basket and a cloth for water lily plants.
