Description

The Ted Uber water lily is a timeless and elegant aquatic plant prized for its fragrant white flowers and bright canary yellow centers. From the very first bloom, this classic variety brings a clean, luminous look to ponds and water gardens, making it a favorite among both new pond owners and seasoned water gardeners.

Each Ted Uber water lily produces medium-to-large blossoms that rest gracefully on the water’s surface. The crisp white petals contrast beautifully with the sunny yellow centers, creating a striking focal point throughout the growing season. In addition to their visual appeal, the blooms are lightly fragrant, adding another layer of enjoyment to your pond environment.

The rounded green lily pads form an attractive surface canopy that not only enhances the pond’s appearance but also provides important benefits. These pads help shade the water, which can reduce algae growth while offering shelter for fish. Because of this balance of beauty and function, the Ted Uber water lily performs exceptionally well in both small pools and larger ponds.

This versatile variety adapts easily to a wide range of water garden settings. Whether planted in a container for a patio pond or placed in a larger koi pond, it establishes reliably and blooms consistently under proper sunlight. Like most hardy water lilies, it thrives best in full sun and rewards gardeners with repeat flowering throughout the season.

If you’re looking for a dependable, classic choice that delivers fragrance, color contrast, and strong growth, the Ted Uber water lily is an excellent addition to any aquatic planting. Its refined appearance and adaptability make it a standout option for enhancing ponds of nearly any size.

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.
