Characteristics and Comments: Be enchanted by the 'Bayou Blue' tropical water lily, with its striking dark blue flowers. The large flowers bloom from June to October, offering a prolonged spectacle. This variety, hybridized by Craig Presnell in 2000, is perfect for medium and large ponds and requires the typical care of tropical water lilies: full sun, warm water, and winter protection.
For tropical water lilies, adequate fertilization is strongly recommended as they require a lot of nutrients to grow optimally. In the fertilizer section you will find Pondtabbs fertilizer, in the form of small tablets, specifically designed for aquatic plants. This allows for vigorous growth and abundant flowering of the purchased plants.
