Description

The ‘Aurora’ blossoms undergo the most remarkable series of color changes. On opening day, they are a creamy yellow, orange the next day, and finally turn a mixed red.

The pygmy ‘Aurora’ hardy water lily changes colors and patterns of leaves as it blossoms from day to day. One of these water lily plants can be considered to be as many as three plants growing as one. Because of this ability to change the plant was named ‘Aurora’.

The miniature pads are beautifully mottled with maroon coloring for a different effect.

It’s one of the better water lilies recommended for the tub garden as well as other sized water garden ponds.

This table shows the estimated shipping and pick-up weeks for destinations to USA states. These dates can change depending on weather and how strong the plants are at that time.

For example, a wet spring will have many clouds leading to less sunshine. Thus, the plants may need a bit longer to grow strong enough for transplanting and transit. With the planet heating up, a warm spring may help the plants grow strong enough to ship before the dates in this table.
