Waterlily 'Albert Greenberg', Water Lily 'Albert Greenberg', Tropical Nymphaea
Nymphaea ‘Albert Greenberg’ (Water Lily) is a day-blooming aquatic perennial boasting large, nearly round green leaves, heavily blotched purple, 18 in. across (45 cm), with wavy edges. Floating on the surface of the water, they create a lovely backdrop for the fragrant, cup-shaped flowers. Each luminous blossom, up to 6-7 in. across (15-17 cm), features several rows of yellow petals (20) with orange-pink tips surrounding a conspicuous bouquet of golden stamens. Blooming from summer to fall, Albert Greenberg is free-flowering and an excellent bloomer, producing many flowers over a long season. Albert Greenberg is a tropical nymphaea that is non-viviparous and perfect for medium to large ponds.
