Ultra Violet Water Lily

Ultra Violet Annual Waterlily is a HEAVY BLOOMER and has beautifully shaped flowers with sumptuous, dark purple flowers and golden-yellow centers.
These beautiful blooms are held regally, 4 - 7 inches, above the surface of the water while the magnificent, maroon pads, splashed with lighter red, float  on the surface of the water. An eye catching combination and a real knockout! Ultra Violet Waterlily will bloom beautifully for you, but you must fertilize your waterlilies as they are VERY HEAVY FEEDERS.

Plant in Loam Soil (this is topsoil with no organic compost added; stay away from bagged soil as it has a lot of compost that will rot in water. Much of the USA is covered in excellent loam soil, which is precisely what you should find under healthy turf/grass. If you live in an area of the USA without good loam, we offer PondGro Aquatic Loam Soil which you can add up to 40% sand to make the volume more once it arrives, but no higher than 40% sand, or the soil will not contain enough nutrients in the mix. This mix is good for all pond plants.
