Nymphaea 'Sultan'

The Sultan Water Lily is a bold hardy variety prized for its rich, deep red blooms that rise slightly above the water's surface, creating a dramatic and elegant display in garden ponds. The large, star-shaped flowers feature layers of velvety petals surrounding a bright golden centre, while the broad green leaves form a dense floating canopy that enhances the visual impact and helps shade the water.

Thriving in full sun and still water, Sultan blooms from June through September, providing reliable and long-lasting summer colour. Its vigorous growth habit makes it ideal for medium to large ponds, and its hardy, low-maintenance nature ensures it is a dependable choice for both beginner and experienced pond keepers.
