{"product_id":"nymphaea-almost-black-water-lily","title":"Nymphaea Almost Black Water Lily","description":"\u003cp\u003eA water lily with flowers dark enough to pass for black, floating on plum-toned blooms through summer. It suits ponds with plenty of direct sun and still water, giving a strong splash of colour without asking for much besides the right spot. Supplied already potted in a mesh basket, in your choice of 3 litre or 10 litre size, so it's ready to lower straight into the pond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNymphaea Almost Black is a water lily grown for flowers so deeply plum-toned they count among the darkest shades found in red lilies. New leaves emerge with a bronze flush before settling to green as the plant matures, adding depth to the display even before the flowers open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits ponds positioned in open sun with still water, giving reliable colour on the surface right through the summer. Because splashing and moving water can get in the way of flowering, a spot away from fountains helps it perform as it should.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou receive one plant, already established in its mesh aquatic basket, ready to lower straight into the pond with no repotting needed first. What sets it apart from paler varieties is the depth of colour, among the darkest reds grown for ponds, paired with foliage that shifts from bronze to green as the season goes on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSun\/Shade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull sun\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlowers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJun to Sep\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrowth rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlant in still water away from splashing fountains.
