Water Lily 'Albida' Nymphaea Albida

A free-flowering variety that produces a profusion of fragrant, bowl-shaped, double white flowers with prominent yellow centres from June to September. 'Marliacea Albida' is the most popular white water lily in cultivation. Best planted at a depth of 70-150cm, it needs plenty of space, so makes an excellent choice for a lake or large, deep, wildlife pond, where the dark green leaves create a shady underwater habitat for native fish and amphibians. The shade cast by the foliage also helps to check the spread of algae.
