Wanvisa Water Lily
Nymphaea 'Wanvisa'
The flowers of this unique variety are predominantly pink with cream flecks but sometimes they are part or all yellow. The leaves are unusually dark and speckled.
It is classed as a "changeable water lily" as the flowers can vary in colour so much from one plant.
It was voted "Best New Water Lily" in 2010, the first hardy variety to win the award.
This lily is pre-planted into a 3L pot - ready to place straight into your pond.
This plant will die back to its basket for winter, and begin growing again in the spring. Trim off brown stems/leaves in the autumn to tidy it up. To encourage growth in the spring of young lily plants, raise them to shallower water by placing on a shelf or positioning an upturned spare basket underneath (approx. 30cm from basket rim to water surface). This helps sunlight reach the crown of the lily so it has more energy to send the initial leaves to the surface.
Water lilies require still water to flourish, so avoid placing near a waterfall or fountain.
The recommended depth in water is calculated as the distance between the top of the basket and the water surface. Therefore "0" would be the basket rim at the water surface.
