The Nymphaea ‘Joey’ Hardy Water Lily is a cheerful and reliable pond plant known for its luminous yellow blooms and classic floating lily pads. The flowers open in soft lemon-yellow tones that deepen slightly toward the center, where a warm golden crown of stamens creates a bright contrast against the layered petals. Each bloom rises gracefully above the water’s surface, forming a full star-shaped flower that stands out beautifully against dark pond water and green lily pads. Each pack contains 12 live rhizomes (tubers) ready for planting in ponds, water gardens, or aquatic containers. Once established, the plant produces lush floating leaves while these vibrant yellow blooms appear throughout the warm growing season. Hardy water lilies thrive in outdoor ponds and water gardens in temperate climates, where their floating leaves help provide natural shade while adding structure and seasonal color to aquatic landscapes. Growing Tips Planting: Plant rhizomes in heavy aquatic soil and cover with pea gravel or small stones Water Depth: Most water lilies prefer 18–24 inches (45–60 cm) of water depth Sunlight: Provide at least 4 hours of direct sunlight daily for flowering Placement: Keep plants away from strong water flow from pumps or filters Surface Growth: Stems grow upward until the plant forms floating lily pads on the water’s surface Fertilizing: Feed periodically during the growing season for best results Water lilies can also thrive in large outdoor containers or patio water gardens when provided with adequate sunlight and calm water conditions.
