Plant tubers in heavy clay-loam soil (not potting mix, which will float) in containers placed in 12–24 inches of water in full sun; the massive circular leaves and huge pale-yellow flowers up to 10 inches across are among the most spectacular sights in water gardening. All parts of this native aquatic plant are edible — the starchy rhizomes are eaten like potatoes, the seeds like nuts, and the young leaves and flower petals as vegetables. The large, sculptural seed heads remain on the plant through winter and are popular in dried floral arrangements. In a natural pond, the rhizomes can spread aggressively; use containers to control spread in small water features. Спосіб посадки: Посадка бульб Відстань між рослинами: 48–72 дюймів Висота: 36–60 дюймів Дні до схожості: 7–14 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 24–29°C
