Tropical nightbloomers bloom from dawn to late morning the following day. We are often asked; `Why should I buy flowers that bloom at night?`. The answer is simple: because they bloom when you are home from work. Dayblooming lilies do close already late in the afternoon.
Among the dayblooming tropical lilies you will find the only waterlilies that bloom in true blue. But the other colours of the tropicals are equaly beautiful. All tropical lilies hold their flowers high over the watersurface and are suitable as cut flowers.
Craig Presnell surprises us every year with new and beautiful waterlilies. `Zolfo Star` is one of his new lilies for 2012. It got starshaped double flowers with soft purple tips and yellow center. Few available only.

This variety was created already in 2005 by Craig Presnell, though we will get the first plants in 2012. The flower is similar to that of `Tanglewood Blue` and `Bayou Blue`, but the foliage is different, that is to say it is speckled. It is a large and very floriferous variety.

This variety was bred by Koch in 1938. We got it by chance, for it was another variety we had ordered. Since it was here, we intended to keep it as an annual (compost heap after flowering), for space in our bassins for tropicals is very limited. Yet the flower charmed us, so we were forced to keep it and make it part of our collection, although it is `only` a pink one. The colour of the flowers changes in correspondance to temperature from palest rose to deep pink, but the flower is always a dream.

In our nursery we take great care to sell only correctly named plants. Plants that loose their name tag and can`t be identified without doubt will not be sold. Only with waterlilies and lotuses we make an exception and offer those unidentified plants for very reduced prices. With tropical waterlilies the danger of loosing their identity occurs when separating the young plants. Please do not ask for colour or size of the plants we offer here - we simply do not know. The plants are strong and will bloom this summer. They are first class plants, all they lack is a name.
More than sixty correclty named tropical waterlilies you will find by clicking on the left side on the buttons `nightbloomers` and `daybloomers`.

This is one of the breeds by Charles Winch that nearly went lost (more information you will find here). Unfortunately our picture wasn`t able to catch colour shade of this waterlily. It is a blue that is mixed with green, similar to the colour of `Green Smoke`. It was hybridized 1992 in Australia, but it was more than a decade later that it became available elsewhere. Today it is still a very rare variety. It`s a medium sized plant and very floriferous.
