N. Painted Lady
A Unique Hardy Lily Where the Pads Rival the Bloom
Nymphaea ‘Painted Lady’ is one of the most visually captivating winter-hardy lilies available. While most water lilies are known for their flowers, Painted Lady's stunning variegated pads compete for attention. Each leaf is beautifully marbled, providing continuous interest even when the plant is not in bloom.
The soft pink flowers rise gracefully above the foliage, creating a serene contrast against the intricate pad patterns. This variety grows large and thrives in spacious settings, making it ideal for larger ponds or expansive water gardens.
