The larger footprint gives rhizomatous plants room to expand through a full growing season without becoming pot-bound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMore Root Space for Larger Aquatic Plants\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater lilies and lotus develop extensive root systems that, when pot-bound, produce fewer blooms and smaller pads. The 16\" diameter gives a medium lily or lotus a full growing season's root run before becoming constrained. Mesh sides allow free water and nutrient exchange while keeping the media contained. Heavy-duty construction handles the weight of a fully planted and top-dressed container without distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16\" (40.6 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeavy-duty mesh, UV-resistant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSafe For\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKoi, goldfish, aquatic plants, wildlife\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUse With\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAquascape Pond Plant Potting Media (AQ-89016)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFill the pot two-thirds with aquatic potting media.
