Introduction: Elegant Rose Marie Water Lily
The Rose Marie Water Lily is a viviparous, day-blooming hybrid renowned for its gorgeous pink blossoms. Derived from the popular ‘Dauben’ blue water lily and the attractive pink ‘Mrs. Robert Sawyer’, this variety combines the best traits of its parents. Gardeners and collectors admire the pointed petals and rich pink color, which rise above the water to create a stunning visual display.

Each bloom of the Rose Marie Water Lily is vibrant and perfectly shaped, showing the signature elegance of both parent plants. Additionally, the flowers open fully during the day, allowing their beauty and delicate fragrance to fill your water garden. This lily is considered an outstanding variety, producing excellent blossoms consistently throughout the growing season. By placing it in a sunny or partially shaded area, you can ensure maximum flower size and longevity.
Foliage and Appearance
The lily’s leaves are broad and robust, providing a striking backdrop for its vivid pink petals. Furthermore, the pads float gracefully on the water, adding texture and depth to any pond or tub garden. Their classic water lily shape enhances the visual appeal, complementing other aquatic plants beautifully.

Hybridized in 1928 by renowned breeder Robert Sawyer at William Tricker’s company, the Rose Marie Water Lily remains a favorite among collectors and pond enthusiasts.

The table below 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.
