The Nymphaea Albatross is a breathtaking water lily that thrives in your pond, showcasing brilliant white flowers. This aquatic plant is designed for deep planting at the pond’s bottom or on planting shelves. As it grows, its leaves naturally stretch toward the surface, creating a beautiful display.
To ensure optimal growth, position your water lily in a sunny spot, away from splashing fountains, and provide ample space for its roots. This elegant variety features rich purple foliage that matures to a charming green, making it a standout choice for any medium to large pond.

For the best results, plant in still water and gradually lower it so the leaves can reach the surface. Regular maintenance involves removing dead leaves and flowers during the growing season. As for repotting, 1-litre lilies should be transferred to a 3-litre mesh basket, while larger varieties can go years without needing repotting.
