Water Lily 'Panama Pacific', Water Lily 'Panama Pacific', Tropical Nymphaea
Nymphaea ‘Pamela’ (Water Lily) is a day-blooming aquatic perennial boasting nearly round, dark green leaves, up to 10 in. wide (25 cm), with a beautiful purple mottling. Floating on the surface of the water, they create a lovely backdrop for the profuse, deep violet-purple flowers, 4-6 in. across (10-15 cm). The highly fragrant blossoms open cup-shaped and then evolve star-shaped. Each flower lasts 3-4 days, opening in the morning and closing by sundown. Blooming from summer into fall, Pamela is very free-flowering, bearing clusters of 5 or more flowers at a time. Hardier than many other tropical water lilies, this tropical nymphaea is viviparous and suitable for medium to large water gardens.
