Ok, so I built my bridge last night, it looks really good I got some inspriation from seeing the bridge in place. The walls of my pond are straight up and down so getting lilies in there has always been one of those hurdles I knew I was going to have to face. I've got baskets hanging from ropes which almost the most painful thing I've had to deal with in this whole project. It's just a mediocre system, it's not ideal. So I realized I can susped plant baskets from a rigid post under the bridge. The bridge is 8' long and covers a 6' wide channel of the pond so I figure I can mount 1 basket on each edge of the bridge, one on the left one on the right. The sun will definitly hit the plant on one side of the bridge, but I'm worried the far side's plant will not get any direct sunlight. Is this going to stifle that lily or will there be enough radiant light that it will grow and eventually put some pads out into the water where it can get direct sunlight?
