I got 15 new lilies at the end of last week and planted them in the pond. I put them in peat pots so I potted them correctly and then set the pots down in the pond bottom. I'm pretty confident I got them planted correctly. I had some tomato cages that I wrapped fencing around to protect the smaller lilies from ducks or geese. Between Saturday and today, every pad on every lily is gone. What could be tearing my lilies up? I at least figured if something came after them, the ones in cages would have been ok. The opening of the fence is maybe 1.5-2" square. It extends down a few inches into the water but I didn't have a top.
Any thoughts? Is there any hope for my lilies at this point?
