Mexicana (Sunrise)

The Mexicana (Sunrise) Water Lily is a beautiful hardy variety known for its unique colour-changing blooms that open soft yellow and gradually deepen to peach and apricot tones as they mature, creating a warm, sunrise-like display on the water’s surface. The star-shaped flowers are complemented by rounded green foliage, often lightly mottled, which provides a lush backdrop while helping to shade the water and support aquatic life.

Thriving in full sun and still water, Mexicana (Sunrise) flowers from June through September, offering continuous and evolving colour throughout the summer months. Its moderate growth habit makes it suitable for small to medium ponds, while its hardy and low-maintenance nature makes it a reliable and rewarding choice for pond keepers of all experience levels.
