Water Lily "Virginalis" 1 Ltr

A very reliably flowering water lily that is always the very first white lily to flower each season.

Mature spread: Medium water lily - covers an area in leaf up to 1.5m in diameter in Summer.

Top tip: Divide every 3-4 years for consistent flowering.

Flowers: June/September Flowering is successional with each flower opening from a tight bud to full flower over a period of 7-10 days. Each flower is at its best for three days, then gradually fades and droops under the water. Once the plant has fully matured, flowers at different stages of growth will be present all through the flowering season.

Planting depth: In the first season start with 20-30cm depth of water from soil surface to water surface and then once leaves and flowers die back in the Autumn, drop the depth to 30-45cm from soil surface to water surface.
