We have the problem of a hard clay bottom. In some areas, we have established water lilies but in most areas, we haven't. Here's what I thought of doing this year.

I can get burlap potato bags easily. I thought of cutting a bag into two pieces and then fill each with dirt. I'd put a tuber into each bag and sow the bag up. I'd then put a bag and tuber where ever I want them.

I'd like some opinions as to whether it would work or not. Would this also work with nuphar species?
