Q: I have a new pond and I planted a hardy waterlily. It sends up flower buds for a few days. They never open and then they die. What do you think is going wrong and how do I fix it?
A: I think that if you work from home for a few days, you may find the flowers are opening up during the day. It sounds like you have accomplished the tasks of fertilizing, giving them enough full sun and having warm water that give other people problems getting their waterlilies to bloom.
