It means 18" from the bottom of the pot - waterlilies prefer about 18" or so of water but will do well in deeper water. I moved mine deeper out of necessity as I had some cubes in the bottom of the pond to elevate my waterlilies to the right depth. I had a fish get caught between the cubes and he could not get out - so DH and I decided the heck with the depth of the waterlilies, we couldn't have fish getting caught and the cubes came out. We have not had any problems with the waterlilies and they are in about 3 1/2 feet of water.
