Simply beautiful.

Vickie,if you don't mind, where do you live, I've noticed you grow alot of tropical water lilies, any night bloomers. i love the blues and purples. Also, do you have a large pond or do you grow in large containers?

thanks for the pics,

alex

Alex I lve in Missouri zone 6. I just think tropical. I have 12 water gardens and tubs also and cow tanks. This year I put the aussies in heated tubs and started them. I grow them from tubers each year. It is tricky. sometimes they will not even sprout. Yes I have night bloomers. I have a friend who lives in Memphis that has gave me many lilies. This lily was given to me also from a generous man.

Keros it might be Mrs. George Hitchock or Celon Pink it is hard to identify from a picture. Different sights show different looks for the same lily. Could even be Texas Shell Pink. Look those up and see if they look like yours.
