Planting and Care Instructions For Water Garden Plants

MARGINAL OR BOG PLANTS Marginal plants should be planted in individual containers of approximately 1 to 3 gallon capacity. Some marginal plants are grown in 2'' net pots and it is recommended that you plant without removing these net pots as not to damage the roots. The net pots are designed to split apart as the plants matures. You can help speed up this process by sniping a couple of times around the top rim of the pot. Plant as you would the lilies, but when adding fertilizer tablets, use 1 tablet for 1 gallon size pots and 2 tablets for 2 or 3 gallon size pots. Marginal plants should be lowered to a depth of only 1 to 3 inches. They grow out of the water and are usually found at the water's edge.
