                    I have had a water lily in a plastic trug (like large bucket) for a few years. It seems happy & healthy - but no flowers.

                      I bought some water hyacinths, a couple of weeks ago, and had problems with the slugs munching them, when they were near the edge. I've had to make sure that they will stay in the middle...
