Prakisad Hardy Water Lily — Coral-Peach Power Bloomer

The Prakisad Hardy Water Lily is a medium hardy water lily famed for coral-peach to soft orange blooms (≈4–6") floating over distinct red-mottled pads. A dependable perennial pond plant, Prakisad is widely regarded as one of the heaviest-blooming hardy lilies—perfect for adding steady, high-impact color to any water garden from late spring through fall.

Why Customers Love It

• Vibrant coral-peach color with glowing, star-shaped form

• Red-mottled pads create striking contrast

• Easy, reliable performer in lined ponds, large containers, or earth-bottom shelves

Plant Requirements (quick reference)

• Sun: Full sun, 6+ hours of strong midday light

• Container: 14–16"+ wide, shallow aquatic container (fabric pots preferred)

• Depth (soil surface → water surface): 6–24" (best bloom around 8–16")

• Spread: ~3–4 ft at maturity (medium habit)

• Soil: Heavy loam topsoil only (no bagged mix, peat, “aquatic media,” or gravel)

Care & Fertilizing (simple schedule)

• Fertilizer tablets: 3–4 tablets on the 1st & 15th each month (May–September)

• Application: Press tablets 3–4" into the soil around (not on) the crown

• Maintenance: Trim spent blooms/yellow leaves; divide every 1–2 years when the rhizome reaches the pot edge

Water Lily Planting Tips

• Plant shallower (8–12") to warm the crown and ramp up bud count

• Keep surface water open and unshaded—pads are “solar panels” for flowers

• Never cover the crown with stones or gravel; leave it slightly exposed

• Use wide, shallow containers to encourage rhizome run and higher bloom counts

• Place away from splashing/aeration; still water shows color best

Do’s & Don’ts

Do

• Plant in full sun and heavy loam

• Fertilize twice monthly on schedule for continuous blooms

• Repot immediately on arrival; keep all parts wet while planting

Don’t

• ❌ Don’t use compost/peat mixes, “aquatic media,” or gravel (they float, rot, or smother crowns)

• ❌ Don’t let floating plants shade Prakisad—light drives flowering

• ❌ Don’t plant too deep (>24") if you want frequent blooms
