The 4 Keys to choosing water lily types

Water lily types are classified according to the climates that they grow in, when they flower, the size of the plant and flower and flower colour.

1· Hardy Water lilies are tolerant of cooler climates. These water lily types flower during the daytime and generally have their flowers floating on the water surface or only just above it.

2· Tropical Water lilies prefer tropical or semitropical climates. These water lily types produce flowers that stand up 30cm out of the water. Most flower during the daytime but there are also night flowering tropical water lilies.

3· Size – miniature water lilies through to giant water lilies vary in flower size from 4 to 30cm across and the leaves from 5cm to over 2m. With the majority of water lily types producing flowers 10 to 20cm wide and leaves 20 to 40cm across.

4· Colour – Hardy water lily flower colours come in apricots, pinks, reds, whites and yellows. Some even change colours and are referred to as changeable. Tropical water lily types range from pinks to reds, whites and yellow, but also include blues and purples.

Water lilies are the feature plant of nearly all water garden designs. These beautiful, low maintenance plants form the colour palette of the pond.
