It forms a clump rather than running, so you control it with pot size and an occasional split. It is normally sold under the cultivar name Marliacea Rosea rather than a separate common name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRounded green pads, up to about 20 cm across. The pads lie flat and create a steady raft over the water. Flowers are uniform pale pink flowers, cup- to star-shaped, up to about 12 cm across. A larger plant that needs room can be part of the appeal. Blooms open in daylight and close later, so the display changes through the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlace Marliacea Rosea in full sun where the surface stays calm and the leaves do not get battered by spray. Plant into a wide aquatic basket with heavy loam based compost, then cap with washed gravel to keep the water clear. Lower the basket in stages so new leaves can reach the surface, then settle it at around 30–90 of water over the crown. Feed with aquatic fertiliser tablets through the growing season, pushed into the compost. Remove yellowing leaves and spent flowers to cut debris and keep growth moving. As a hardy lily, it can stay outside in winter as long as the crown sits below the ice line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitability for Garden Ponds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarliacea Rosea suits ponds where you can give it about 90–150 cm of surface space. The pads shade fish and help limit algae by reducing light once the plant is established. Use one main lily in a small pond, or space several well apart in a larger pond so each has open water around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Marliacea Rosea hardy in the UK?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
