Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to repot the plant before placing it in my pond?
Do I need to repot the plant before placing it in my pond?
No. Both the 3 litre and 10 litre plants come in mesh aquatic baskets that can go straight into the pond, with no need to remove the mesh or repot first.

Will this lily grow well in a shaded pond?
It needs full sun to perform well, so a mostly shaded pond isn't the best match for this variety.

What's the difference between the 3 litre and 10 litre options?
What's the difference between the 3 litre and 10 litre options?
Both are the same lily. The 10 litre plant is supplied in a larger mesh basket and is already more established, while the 3 litre plant is a smaller size that can be moved into a bigger basket later if you want it to grow on further.
This double-flowered white water lily suits medium to large ponds and lakes, and its cover helps shade the water surface to support pond life once it settles in. You get one established plant supplied already potted in its mesh aquatic basket, ready to lower into the water in either a 3 litre or 10 litre size.
Nymphaea Gonnere is a double-flowered white water lily holding the RHS Award of Garden Merit, a recognition given to varieties with reliable performance in pond conditions. It suits medium to large ponds and lakes, and once it has settled in, its leaf cover helps shade the water surface, supporting a healthier environment for pond life in full sun.
Each plant is supplied already growing in a mesh aquatic basket, so you can lower it straight into the water without extra potting work. The 3 litre plant comes in a 3 litre basket, and the 10 litre plant in a 10 litre basket; either size can stay in its basket permanently, with no need to remove the mesh.
Golden-centred, double white blooms appear through the main summer growing months, and the plant builds its coverage steadily, suiting ponds where it has room to spread over time.
