I replanted my hardy water lilies last year after they failed to grow as well as they did the first growing season, but I'm wondering if I should've done something differently since they seem kinda puny again this year. I bought the water lilies from Lowe's and they did amazingly well the first year but quickly outgrew the pots I had them in. I bought some fabric pots and aquatic planting media and replanted them with a fertilizer spike in each fabric pot but they haven't come back as well as I had hoped. I am wondering if I should take the tubers out of the "mesh-like growing bag" (I really don't know what else to call them..) that they came in and replant them in the media? I didn't do that last year because I didn't want to hurt the plant, but could those mesh bag thingies be restricting their growth?
I'll attach some photos so you can see what I mean by "mesh-like growing bag thingies" LOL
