Default Lilies didn't grow


© wrote in message .. .
Well the rhizomes I bought from E-bay (just put in the water and watch
them grow) type did not sprout at all.

What did I do wrong ?


All my lily bulbs were planted in soil and all grew and bloomed. They wont
grow much or flower in my ponds unless planted in decent soil and
fertilized.

Can I save the rhizome and try again next year ?


If it didn't sprout then it couldn't make enough FOOD (to replenish the
tuber) to survive and grow next spring/summer.
