32 STEP 1 STEP 4 HOW TO DIVIDE A LILY STEP 2 STEP 5 STEP 3 STEP 6 HOW TO DIVIDE A LILY One or two years after planting, look for overcrowding and reduced blooming. Hardy waterlilies and other surface growers will begin to bunch above the water s surface. For improved plant health, aesthetics and to separate new plants, do the following: STEP 1 Lift each plant container from your pond. STEP 2 Remove the plant from its container. STEP 3 Rinse the soil off of the rootstock. 32 lilypons.com LILY (5459) STEP 4 A main growing tip with a few juvenile growing tips will be visible on a large rootstock. Cut off the old rootstock end. STEP 5 Leave 4-6" of healthy rootstock with the main growing tip. Discard the old, woody rootstock end and cut off the juvenile crowns. STEP 6 Repot the trimmed rootstock (make sure to add fertilizer) and replace the container(s) in your pond. Do not divide or transplant too late in the season; the plant needs a chance to get established before dormancy. Spring is the best time.

44 WATER GARDEN ESSENTIALS Installing Your Water Garden ESSENTIAL TOOLS FOR THE JOB» Liner of your choice» Yard stick or tape measure» Rope or garden hose for outlining pond shape» Edging materials» Carpenter s square for sharp angle designs» Carpenter s level» Straight 2" x 4" board as long as excavation is wide» Heavy duty scissors or knife» Shovel, wheelbarrow, and digging tools» Underlayment and sand STEP 3 Check your excavation s top level. This is critical to making sure that water does not pour over one side, and leave your liner exposed on the other. Place a straight 2" x 4" board on edge across the excavation, hold a carpenter s level on top of the board and verify the level at various points around the rim. Adjust the soil rim to make perimeter level. even overlap all around. Hold liner in place with bricks or smooth stones. They can be eased off as the filling of the pond pulls the liner into place. STEP 6 It can take several hours for a large pond to fill. After the pond is filled, begin the edging process. Do not trim any liner until entire edging/ coping is complete. Trim overlap leaving a flap 6"-12" wide around the entire pond. STEP 1 Outline your desired area with a garden hose or large rope. Make size and shape adjustments now, before you dig. Use a string, stakes, and a carpenters square for ponds with sharp angles such as a square or a rectangle. For a circular pond, use a central stake and measure outward evenly. STEP 4 Cut a shallow 12"-15" wide ledge beyond the rim for any intended coping other than simple fieldstones or sod. Complete the final digging and shaping, and check all depth and leveling measurements one last time. Sides and bottom should be closely inspected for any sharp rocks or protruding tree roots. Line the bottom of the excavation with about 1" of sand to cushion and protect the liner. An underlayment of geo-textile material should used to cover the excavation sides, for extra protection of your liner. STEP 7 For a natural rock ledge lay your coping to extend an inch or two over the pond protecting the liner from ultraviolet rays. STEP 8 With your installation complete, you need only to fill your water garden with the beautiful plants and fish you like best. For installing more elaborate ponds or waterfalls check out Ortho s, All About Building Waterfalls, Ponds, and Streams (pg. 45). STEP 2 Mark outline with shovel cuts and begin digging from the inside out, leaving shelves for marginal plants (optional), 9"-12" wide and 9"-12" below the top edge of excavation. Sides should slope slightly inward from top to bottom at about a 75 angle. Pond depth can be checked during excavation by using a board and a tape measure. Most ponds are 18"-24" deep. The pond bottom should slope slightly toward one end. This will facilitate draining and cleaning the pond. STEP 5 Carefully unfold and drape the liner into the excavation. Do not drag the liner across the ground. Most liners take two people to maneuver.

46 WATER GARDEN ESSENTIALS Keeping Your Pond Clean + Healthy Keeping your pond clean and healthy is simple when you have the formula. Essential to your pond s well being are such items as submerged plants, scavengers, pumps, filters, and some preventive medicine. Here s how you do it QT. 19 QT. 48 QT. 3.5 QT. 7.5 QT. The Proportions Cover 60-70% of pond surface with waterlilies (pg. 4-19) or floating bog plants (pg ). Stock one bunch of submerged plants (pg. 37) per square foot of pond surface area for ponds up to 100 square feet. One bunch per two square feet for ponds over 100 square feet. Stock scavengers at the same rate as submerged plants (pg. 37). Stock up to 1" of goldfish (1/2" of koi) per 5 gallons of water (pg. 37). Re-circulate and filter the total volume of water in your pond once every 2 to 6 hours, depending on your filter selection (pg ). The ultimate clear water enhancement is an Ion-Mate (pg. 51). The Set Up Fill your pond with water. Use Stress Coat if you have treated water (pg. 41). Plant and place your aquatic plants in your pond, including submerged plants. See diagram above for height placement. Use a combination of barley (available in straw, pellet or liquid form, (pg. 59) and a beneficial bacteria such as ponsparkle, (pg. 57). Wait two weeks. Your pond water cures during this time and your pond is creating its own eco-system. The water will probably turn green. Do not drain your pond. Algaecides are not required, but may be used to kill unwanted algae. You re observing a very natural, healthy process. To test this put your hand in the water about 6" below the surface and you should be able to see your hand perfectly. If you have a UV clarifier or Ion-Mate this phase will be eliminated and your water will not develop a dark green color, (pg. 51). Another alternative is to use deep water, a dye that will turn the water black, (pg. 59). Add your fish and scavengers. Sit back and enjoy your tranquil oasis. 46 lilypons.com LILY (5459)

47 Choosing a Filter 1. Calculate the total gallons of your pond rectangle = length x width x depth x 7.5; Circle = 3.14 x depth (1/2 diameter x 1/2 diameter) x depth x Take into consideration the type of pond that you have and where you live. If you plan to have koi, choose a filter that can handle twice the capacity of your pond. If you live in zones 8 or above, add an additional 1/3 to your total gallons. And yes, if you live in zones 8 or above and have koi double and add 1/3. 3. If your pond is stocked according to the directions on pg. 46 and your pond is lightly stocked with fish a mechanical filter should provide adequate filtration. It is economical and since you have balanced your pond naturally, maintenance shouldn t be excessive. Choose the PMK filter for your size pond (pg. 50). 4. If your looking for ease of maintenance and crystal clear water and your pond isn t overloaded with fish and has at least 1/2 of the required plants, then a pressurized filter should work great for you. Try the Pondmaster, Tetra or Laguna pressure filters (pg ). 5. If you have Koi and/or large fish, then biological filtration is best for you.

56 WATER GARDEN MAINTENANCE Water Garden Maintenance PLANTS FERTILIZE After planting them properly, feed your waterlilies and lotus at a rate of 1 Lilytab per 4-5 quarts of soil. You ll be repaid with blossoms and extra healthy foliage. PRUNING AND THINNING For improved water quality and aesthetics.» Trim all dying leaves and flowers at base of stem.» Submerged plants may need thinning, clip to desired length.» Prune floating leaf plants near soil line, erect plants to just above water line after killing frost. Make this step easier with a lily prune, (pg. 33). TRANSPLANTING AND DIVIDING Frequency depends on variety.» Begin after one or two years, look for overcrowding and poor blooming.» Do not divide or transplant too late in the season, the plant needs a chance to get established before dormancy. Visit our website, lilypons.com for detailed dividing instructions. FISH + SCAVENGERS FEEDING Better to underfeed than overfeed.» Feed your fish at the same spot and the same time for two weeks and you will train your fish to come to you as you approach your pond.» Feed no more than twice daily, once a day is preferred so that fish food nutrients do not cause heavy algae growth.» Fish will gradually stop eating in the late fall and resume in early spring, adjust feeding accordingly, (pg. 39). INSPECTION FOR HEALTH» Look for unusual feeding or swimming habits.» During hot summer months make sure that your pump is running 24/7 to maximize oxygen levels in the pond. You may want to add an air pump, (pg ).» Check for spots, sores or unusual marks on body. Keep ponsalt on hand and add at the onset until you can get the proper medicine. Ponsalt is a great fish tonic. WATER QUALITY CLEAN FILTERS AS DEBRIS ACCUMULATES» Check mechanical filters daily.» Make sure pad is properly replaced on filter tube or in filter box.» Biological filters should be back flushed bi-weekly to monthly per manufacturer guidelines. EVAPORATION Top off as needed to keep pond full.» Check weekly during summer.» Add Stress Coat if water is treated with chlorine or chloramines. SKIMMING Remove floating leaves and debris. ALGAE CONTROL Growth fluctuates especially during changes in the season. See pages for helpful products. CLEANING YOUR POND BI-YEARLY IN SPRING AND FALL Your goal is to limit sediment buildup on the bottom of the pond to be no more than 1". See pages for helpful products. 56 lilypons.com LILY (5459)
