Nymphaea Charlie's Choice Hardy Water Lily


WE DO NOT SHIP PLANTS. LOCAL PICK UP ONLY

A small vigorous lily with a dark red center fading to almost white on the outermost petals. Great bloomer. Zone 3.

This small to medium red changeable produces flowers with colors ranging from white to rich pink and varying shades of bronze-red. A continual changing mosaic of colors.


Charlie’s Choice is a great choice for smaller ponds and containers. The flowers grow to a width of about 2 to 3 inches and show off a kaleidoscope of colors, from white to pink to bronze-red, throughout their lifespan.

The Charlie in this lily’s name is Charles Thomas of Lilypons Water Gardens in Maryland. Thomas co-founded the organization now known as the International Waterlily and Water gardening Association and discovered several waterlily hybrids, including the popular Nymphaea ‘Virginia.’ Kirk Strawn – another pioneer in the waterlily industry – hybridized the ‘Charlie’s Choice’ waterlily in 1995, naming it after his fellow horticulturalist.
