Mardi Gras

one of the most festive water lilies out there. This is Mardi Gras created by Mattew Koch. The flowers are a very consistant uniform star shape with a soft pink undertone and purple plashes. The pads are a deep green and maroon tiger pattern. The combination of the flower and pads makes it one show stoper. 
 
For best results, Mardi Gras is a sun lover and needs full day sun and warm water 75f or warmer. Plant in a depth range of 6-18" from soil to surface in a 12" curcular pot with a decent depth as the roots like to dig deep.
