To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Citrus Twist Water Lily after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Black spots I've been growing these for a month or two. The leaves still haven't opened, but they started getting these black spots on them. What are they, and how do I fix it? Also, the seeds keep floating. Is that normal?
