Nymphaea ‘Attraction’ is one of the most popular hardy water lilies, producing large rich red to deep pink flowers with bright golden yellow centres that float elegantly on the pond surface. The impressive blooms appear from late spring through to early autumn, providing strong colour and visual impact throughout the pond season.
The plant forms attractive broad floating lily pads that spread across the surface of the water, helping to provide natural shade which can reduce sunlight penetration and assist in limiting algae growth. The pads also create shelter for fish and aquatic wildlife.
Supplied in a 4 litre aquatic planting basket, this established water lily is well suited to medium and larger ponds, where it can spread naturally and become a striking focal point.
Water lilies play an important role in a balanced pond, adding beauty while helping to shade the water and create a more stable environment.
