Hardy Water Lilies

Hardy Water Lilies are amazing water lilies in the Nymphaea genus. They will grow and come back each season in most areas, provided the tubers are not allowed to freeze.

As with all lilies & lotus, they do require generally at least 6 hours of sunlight to flower. A few varieties will flower with less light but 6 hours is the recommended minimum.
