Hmm...any idea if the floating pad version works on sensitive lilies like tiger lotus? If so the next time I trim they arent going into the garbage can haha.


I hope it will. I just got 2 TL myself. The next trimming you do see if it will work on these as well.
 
This is not be entirely true. You can grow new plants from cuttings of a bulb plants.
If you notice this bulb has a runner coming off of it. If you cut this runner (daughter plant) and replant it you will have a new plant. Also you can cut floating lily pads and let it float around the tank it will grow roots and you can plant that to start a new plant.

Yay for plasticity in plants!!!!!

Dwarf Lilly

I have some in my 75. They look great and do not rewire a lot to flourish.

are you sure it's a Nuphar sp. and not Nyphaea sp. I imagine we`d have to wait till it flowers to know for sure but I`m just not entirely positive it is a Nuphar

I already knew that about cutting the plant off the bulb. I had 2 bulbs before and I had so many plants I did not know that to do with them. That is why I got rid of the bulbs. What I did not know is the pads being cut and growing roots.
