Hardy Water Lily 'Colorado' (Nymphaea 'Colorado')

Bring warm, sunset-inspired color to your pond with Hardy Water Lily 'Colorado' (Nymphaea 'Colorado'), one of the most sought-after peach-colored hardy water lilies. This stunning variety produces abundant peach to salmon-colored blooms with subtle hints of apricot and pink, creating a vibrant focal point throughout the growing season.

The beautifully rounded flowers float gracefully above attractive green lily pads, providing exceptional contrast while adding elegance to ponds and water gardens. As the blooms mature, their color deepens, offering an ever-changing display that complements both formal and natural pond landscapes.
