lily pads


Question
My lily pads are really taking over my pond. When is a good
time to take some out, I have alot of people wanting some of them. They have fuschia color flowers on them right now.

Answer
Is this a dirt bottomed pond?  Are the lilies potted or free growing?  If they're potted, it's easier to control them.  Lilies are best repotted (or separated) in early spring but, if needed, they can be repotted now.  It's not ideal but it should be ok.  Be sure to leave some intact just in case.
