Hardy waterlily Perry's Baby Red
Coping almost flawlessly through the heat of Summer on the hottest pond, Nymphaea Perry's Baby Red has a well deserved reputation for a very reliable growing habit and a modest small to medium size lilypad spread.
Prolific blooms three to five at a time are to be expected on an established position, which begin to spoil on the very hottest days, when air temps are 100°f. Midday dappled shade would be good in climates with hot summers
Grown on a small pot with low fertility Baby Red stunts to a small size, lilypads spreading a foot or two wide. Grown bare root in a mud pond and it will double its size and bloom at a different rate
