Sold Nymphaea 'Helvola' Yellow Hardy Water Lily (aka 'Yellow Pygmy')

One of the smallest of all cultivated waterlilies, ‘Helvola’ or ‘Yellow Pygmy’ as it is often called, is perfect for the smallest tubs and container gardens. It is also just as beautiful in a large pond in between some of the larger waterlilies. ‘Helvola’ is a phenomenal bloomer, and a well established plant may have 6-10 or more flowers at once. Like one of its parents, N, mexicana, ‘Helvola’ does not open its blooms until late morning, and they remain open until late in the afternoon.

A true dwarf that can live in a small whiskey barrel size tub or pond for several years before needing to be divided. A very popular variety, especially for our tub and container garden customers, ’Helvola’ is always in demand and is often in limited supply. We recommend that you order early in the season to ensure the best availability.

These plants are in budding/blooming condition. You can expect blooms soon after planting!

Plants are shipped bare root. Planting directions and aquatic plant fertilizer are included with every order.

Shipped USPS Priority Mail or UPS Second Day Air.
