Question
Hi there,
Can you tell me the ideal PH level for hardy water Lilly's please.

Barry

Answer
Hi Barry,
Thanx for your question.  The ideal pH level for hardy water lilies is a neutral pH of 7.0 to 7.2.  A healthy range is 6.8 - 7.5.  I prefer to keep mine in the middle around 7.0.  I try not to use any chemicals to regulate the pH but I try to rely on natural rainwater.  I hope this helps.
