Nymphaea 'General Pershing'
| These aquatic plants are prized for their star-shaped, semi-double flowers which bloom in many colors. Flowers and large leaves float on or rise just above the surface of water. Need full sun to bring out their gorgeous blooms. Plant easy-to-grow, hardy varieties where freezing winters kill the tender tropical varieties. Plant rhizomes on the surface of soil, 8 to 12 inches below the waterline, in a pond or container. |
Dinstinctive, purple-striped, young, green flower buds open to large, sweetly-scented, deep pink flowers with yellow stamens. A tropical day blooming lily, its flowers are held high above the large leaves that are red underneath. Plant 1½ to 2½ feet deep.
