Garden Plant: Sirius Water Lily
Product Description: Sirius Water Lily
A Flotilla of Flowers
Named for the brightest star in the sky, this outstanding lily lives up to its name by producing large purplish-red flowers in profusion.
The leaves are maroon flecked before maturing to all green. \’Sirius’ is truly a classic in the water lily world, hybridized by Latour-Marliac Nursery in 1913.
The purple-red flowers are 6-7 inches wide, the large leaves are 10-11 inches wide, and the overall plant spread is 5-6 feet wide.
