Our Ponds

My Pond 2007

This is a Queen of Siam, tropical water lily taken from my pond in the summer of 2007.  Its one of my favorites!  It is a viviparous, more cold tolerant lily than some of the other tropicals and stays open longer in the day.  It is an excellent bloomer with the darkest pink blossoms and highly mottled foliage.  It will bloom longer in the season due to it being more cold tolerant.
