Hello I have a tropical lily that I have brought in from the cold. I have placed it in an aqurium filled with pond water to save it from the winter. Not sure if it will live. Any suggestions on how to keep it alive for next spring?
Thanks, Steve B.

I just put mine in a tub, stuck them in the basement (furnished, but unheated temp around 55-60) put them by a patio door. Add water just when it gets low. I left them in their oil pans with kitty litter placed that in the tub.
