Water Lilies
Yesterday I managed to see some of the newer, mainly US bred, varieties of
hardy water lily and was knocked out by their colour, beauty and habit. If you are thinking of making a pond or want a new lily for an existing pond my I suggest you ignore the usual Aquatic Centre in the Garden Centre that have only the older varieties of mainly French bred lilies and search out a specialist grower. Names to look for are.... Barbara Dobbins Peaches and Cream Peach Glow and those are just some of the beautiful peach coloured ones, all of which carry their blooms above the water like the tropical lilies, and most have good fragrance. I might add, the best time to buy and install a new lily is in May. -- Regards Bob in Runnymede, 17miles west of London, UK |
