This ‘Mrs. Robert Sawyer’ waterlily is known as the first pink tropical water lily of the viviparous type — all others at that time being blue. This was proudly cited in the William Tricker 1927 mail order catalog as “This lily has a gorgeous, full petaled flower much larger than other viviparous types, and it surpasses all other pink tropical lilies in depth of coloring.”

Preferred Growing Conditions

Does well in semi-shade.

Size

Large blossoms.

Botanical Name

Nymphaea 'Mrs. Robert Sawyer'

Hybridized By

This lily was hybridized at William Tricker, Inc. by Robert Sawyer in 1927.

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.
