Nymphaea Sunset Glow is an exceptionally beautiful water lily with pinkish-yellow blooms that resemble a sunset: the outer petals are pink, while the inner ones are yellow. The plant is vigorous, blooms abundantly, and is perfect for medium or large ponds. Water Lily Sunset Glow brings color, beauty, and tranquility to any pond.
| Flower color | outer petals are pink, inner petals are yellow |
| Leaves | greenish-brown |
| Water depth | 60 – 100 cm |
| Plant spread | 2.5 m² |
| Note: Nymphaea Sunset Glow prefers a sunny growing spot (at least 5 – 6 hours of light daily). It blooms from June to September and is well-suited for small ponds or tubs. Removing deadhead blooms and yellowed leaves helps keep the water cleaner. | |
Planting
Water lilies prefer rich, clay-like soil; sandy bottoms are not suitable for them. In a natural pond, they can be planted directly into the mud at a depth of at least 50 cm, where the bottom does not freeze in winter. If the pond freezes completely during the winter, the water lily should be removed in autumn along with the planting basket and placed in an appropriate wintering location. A dark cellar with low temperature is ideal. The plant should be placed in a water-filled container, its leaves removed, and regularly checked throughout the winter to ensure it has enough water, adding more as needed.
