Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily – A Small Red Gem for Ponds & Containers

The Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily is a true classic in the world of pond plants. Hybridized by Perry Slocum in 1983, this hardy water lily produces charming, cup-shaped blooms with rich, rosy-red petals that lighten gracefully toward the outer edges. Its heart-shaped green pads begin as purple-brown before maturing to a soft green, creating a striking contrast with the deep red blossoms.

Compact and reliable, Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily is a prolific bloomer from late spring through frost. Its petite 18–28 inch spread makes it a wonderful choice for small ponds, patio tubs, and container water gardens. The lightly fragrant flowers often appear in abundance, ensuring you’ll never see just one bloom at a time.

If you’re searching for a hardy water lily with brilliant color and reliable performance in limited space, this variety is a must-have!


Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily Proper Planting and Care

  • Container Size: Plant in a 12–14 inch wide container (fabric aquatic pots recommended).

  • Soil Type: Use heavy loam topsoil only (avoid bagged soils with compost, which float and rot in water).

  • Depth from Soil to Water Surface: Best grown 5–20 inches deep in the pond.

  • Sunlight Needs: Requires 6+ hours of strong, direct sunlight daily for abundant blooms.

  • Bloom Season: Steady blooms from late spring through frost when properly planted and fertilized.


Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily Fertilizing Schedule

  • Fertilize on the 1st and 15th of each month throughout the growing season (April–September).

  • Insert 2–3 Waterlily World Fertilizer Tablets into the soil, 3–4 inches deep near the crown.

  • Regular feeding ensures continuous red blossoms and healthy, vibrant foliage.


Do’s and Don’ts for Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily

✅ Do:

  • Plant in heavy loam soil in a proper aquatic container or earth-bottom pond.

  • Provide full, direct sun for the best flowering results.

  • Divide rhizomes every 1–2 years to prevent overcrowding.

  • Keep roots and stems moist during unpacking and plant immediately upon arrival.

❌ Don’t:

  • Do not use bagged compost soils, pea gravel, or stones — they suffocate or starve the rhizome.

  • Do not overcrowd this lily with floating plants or other lilies — it needs clear surface space for light and flowering.

  • Do not let the plant dry out; hardy waterlilies are sensitive to dehydration when out of water.

  • Do not plant too shallowly; blooms are most attractive when floating naturally on the water’s surface.
