While pulling out my cattails, this was lodged in the roots. I've never actually seen the root / rhizome for my pond lilies (I bought them in a basket and just dropped them in), so I'm not sure... is this a pond lily root?
If so, it wasn't in a basket, just lodged in with the roots for the cattails. So what do I do with it now, plant it in a basket and hope it comes up next year? Weigh it down with a rock and let it get close to where it was originally? Or since I uprooted it at the end of June in zone 7A have I pretty much killed it?
Right now I just have it floating in the pond, waiting to figure out what to do with it.
