That is so pretty! I have a very bad feeling that collector-itis is going to set in for me! I can't wait to see the ones I have bloom. Hope I get a bloom this year! That one is a stunner!

Thank you, yes. I believe they can be addictive. But I warn you that many lilies can get "BIG". I have a hard time trying to not overwhelm my pond. If you have good sun and fertilizer you should get blooms this year :)

beautiful bloom, I know what you mean about not overwhelming the pond, I've got four lillies in a small pond less than 500 gallons, second year, I would love to get more but i'm sure in a few years it will be packed. I cant justify a bigger pond, yet!
Perhaps in a few years, the backyard will be ready for a pond... lol .

Maybe you need to do what I did and make some "mini" ponds. I stack up cement blocks into a small square, plastered the outside with cement, and put liner inside to make a small Lotus pond. (with a few lilies of course !)
