Laguna Lily Planting Tub — 19.5" 9-Gallon Pond Planter, Deep No-Hole Design for Water Lilies & Lotus

Laguna's 19.5-inch, 9-gallon Lily Planting Tub is a deep, hole-free pond planter designed to contain lilies, lotus, and grouped bog plants neatly and securely.

This durable pond tub gives aquatic gardeners a simple, tidy way to cultivate water lilies, lotus, and marginal bog species without worrying about soil escaping into the pond. Made for practical in-pond and container water gardening, the Laguna tub balances roomy planting depth with a compact footprint so you can create lush displays in small ponds, water gardens, or patio containers.

How much planting space does the Laguna tub provide?

The tub holds about 9 U.S. gallons (34 L) and measures 19.5 inches in diameter by 9.5 inches high, offering plenty of volume for expanded root systems and growing media. Its depth supports both tropical and hardy varieties that need space to establish without crowding.

• Capacity: 9 U.S. gallons (34 L)
• Dimensions: 19.5" diameter × 9.5" height (49.5 cm × 24 cm)
• Ample depth for larger rhizomes and multiple plants

Why choose a tub with no holes or lattice?

The solid-sided design keeps potting mix and soil contained, preventing debris from washing into pond water and reducing maintenance. Because it lacks drainage openings, you control the water level and substrate composition to suit lilies and marginal plants.

• Prevents soil washout into pond systems
• Simplifies planting and relocation without losing media
• Allows intentional water depth management for specific species

Can I use this tub for different pond planting styles?

Yes — it works for single large lilies, grouped plantings, or small lotus varieties and is suitable for planting directly into a pond bed or as an isolated container. The tub's shape and size let you combine plants or change displays seasonally with minimal effort.

• Ideal for single specimens or multi-plant arrangements
• Works in small ponds, water features, or deckside planters
• Easy to move when empty for seasonal changes

How do I plant and maintain lilies in this tub?

Fill the tub with a heavy aquatic planting mix or a dense loam to anchor rhizomes, position plants at the appropriate depth, and submerge to the recommended water level for your species. Routine pruning of spent foliage and occasional repositioning of tub depth will keep plants healthy and the pond tidy.

• Use heavy aquatic soil or loam to prevent floating sediments
• Set lily rhizomes so growing tips face upward and bury appropriately
• Place tub at proper pond depth for species and trim dead foliage seasonally

Who is this for? The Laguna Lily Planting Tub is aimed at pond owners, water gardeners, and landscapers who want a low-maintenance planting container for lilies, lotus, and marginal bog plants. It suits hobbyists who need a tidy, movable solution to contain soil and control planting depth, and anyone creating focused aquatic displays in small ponds, patios, or water-feature installations.
