Product information
The Pygmaea Alba (Canina) Water Lily is a charming dwarf variety, perfect for small ponds, tubs, or container water gardens. It produces delicate, star-shaped white flowers with a bright yellow center, floating elegantly on the water’s surface. The rounded green leaves provide excellent coverage, helping to reduce algae growth and provide shelter for aquatic life. This compact water lily thrives in calm, shallow waters and prefers a sunny position for optimal blooming. Ideal for enhancing the beauty of any water feature, its small size makes it particularly suitable for mini ponds or patio containers.
