We recently added a small landscape pond with a waterfall feature to our yard. I recently added a small group of water lilies and noticed a strong skunky water odor. The plants I was gifted smelled before I put them in the pond. I noticed the smell the most when I turned the waterfall feature on. Suggestions?

Sounds like a bacteria build up. Usually introducing oxygen and sunlight corrects this problem. Evidently the plants you were given came from a pond that wasn't the healthiest.
You can put some diluted bleach in the pond
