Blue Beauty Tropical Water Lily

The Blue Beauty Water Lily is a luminous tropical variety with elegant lavender-blue petals surrounding bright yellow stamens. Its blossoms are regal and fragrant, blooming all summer long in warm, sunny water gardens. The large green pads feature undulating edges, adding extra texture and visual interest to this already striking specimen. A heavy bloomer, Blue Beauty is medium to large in size and makes a radiant focal point in any pond or water garden.

Admired for its strong color, fragrance, and continuous flowering, the Blue Beauty Tropical Water Lily performs beautifully when planted in full sun and well-fed with aquatic fertilizer. Whether featured in a home pond, water garden, or larger landscape, it delivers season-long beauty.

🌱 Planting & Care Instructions

• Blue Beauty Water Lily Size: Medium to large tropical variety

• Blue Beauty Water Lily Spread: 4–7 feet, depending on fertilization and pot size

• Blue Beauty Water Lily Container Size: 15-inch wide fabric aquatic grow pot with handles recommended for medium/large varieties (7.5-inch pots may hold smaller lilies up to 8 months)

• Depth of the Blue Beauty Water Lily: Best blooming at 6–16 inches below water surface; tolerates 24–30 inches, though fewer blooms occur at greater depths

• Soil: Plant only in heavy loam soil. Do not use aquatic planting media, pea gravel, stones, or bagged compost mixes—these cause poor growth or mortality. If natural loam isn’t available, use PondGro Aquatic Loam Soil (may be mixed with up to 40% sand for volume, but never more).

• Fertilizing the Blue Beauty Water Lily: Use 3–4 Waterlily World Fertilizer Tablets every 2–3 weeks, ideally on the 1st and 15th of each month, or apply Landon’s Granular Fertilizer for slow-release feeding. Regular fertilization ensures continuous blooms.

• Fragrance: Yes, sweet scent

• Winter Hardiness: USDA Zones 9–12 (annual elsewhere)

📦 Seasonal Shipping Information for Tropical Water Lilies

Tropical water lilies are often ready a few weeks later than other pond plants in spring. They typically ship between May and August/September when warm weather ensures healthy growth.

• If your order includes a tropical water lily, the entire order will be held until the tropical is available.

• If you want to receive other pond plants sooner, please place two separate orders.

• In northern regions, tropical water lilies are generally ready just as it becomes safe to ship pond plants to your area.

💡 PondMegastore Tip: For in-ground ponds without liners, plant Blue Beauty directly into embankment soil 6–10 inches below the waterline. Use temporary fencing for 6–10 weeks to protect new plants from raccoons, turtles, or other wildlife until established.

✅ Do’s & ❌ Don’ts for Blue Beauty Water Lily

Do’s
✅ Use a 15-inch fabric grow pot (or 7.5-inch pot for smaller/younger plants)
✅ Plant in heavy loam soil only
✅ Fertilize regularly (every 2–3 weeks) with 3–4 tablets or use Landon’s Fertilizer
✅ Keep crown 6–16 inches deep for abundant flowering
✅ Provide full sun (6+ hours daily)

Don’ts
❌ Don’t use aquatic planting media, pea gravel, or stones—these often cause plant mortality
❌ Don’t use bagged potting soil with compost—it rots underwater
❌ Don’t bury the growing point—keep it exposed to sunlight
❌ Don’t plant too deep (over 24 inches) if you want heavy blooming
❌ Don’t skip dividing overcrowded rhizomes—cramped pots reduce blooms
