Default Nymphaea suggestion for a small pond

Hi,

I would like to add a miniature leaved, white or soft cream flowered Nymphaea to my very small, shallow garden pond. The depth of water at the deepest section is only 18 inches. I understand that miniature water lilies have a leaf spread of about 12 to 18 sq. in., so one plant should be quite adequate. As the spread will need to be restricted, it appears that I should buy a container grown plant. Any variety suggestions would be most welcome. At the moment the only plant I have in my pond is a Juncus effusus 'Spiralis'.

Thanks, in advance.
