Frequently Asked Questions

Does this water lily need repotting when it arrives?

No, the 3 litre pot is ready to plant as supplied. Moving it into a larger basket later on can help it continue developing, though this isn't essential straight away.

Can I plant it near a fountain or water feature?

No, it needs still water, so it should be kept away from splashing fountains or other moving water.

When does it flower?

It flowers from June to September.

How deep should I plant it, and how much space does it need?

Plant at a depth of 30 to 70cm, allowing for a spread of 50 to 90cm as it establishes.

What happens if I buy it out of season?

Plants may still be available out of season, but they could be supplied cut back.

A pink-flowered water lily suited to garden ponds with still, sunny water. Its free-flowering habit helps keep colour on the pond surface through much of the summer, and the elegant foliage adds interest between blooms. Supplied as an established plant in a 3 litre pot, ready to lower into position.

Nymphaea 'Rose Arey' is a water lily grown for its large, rose-pink, star-shaped flowers with slightly incurved petals. It suits garden ponds with still water in full sun, and its free-flowering habit helps keep the pond in colour for much of the summer, with elegant foliage framing the blooms throughout.

What you get: one established plant supplied in a 3 litre pot. It is ready to lower straight into the pond, with no repotting required, though moving it into a larger basket later on can help it continue developing. If you order outside the main growing season, plants may still be available but could be supplied cut back.

Plant it in still water, away from splashing fountains or other moving water, and lower it gradually so the leaves can reach the surface within a few days. During the growing season, remove dead leaves and flowers to keep it looking its best. See the sizing guidance below for planting depth and spread so you can give it enough room in the pond.
