Nymphoides peltata, commonly known as Fringed Water Lily, is a UK native beautiful floating pond plant that produces masses of bright yellow flowers with distinctive fringed petals throughout summer.
Its attractive floating leaves provide natural shade and shelter for pond wildlife while helping to reduce sunlight penetration into the water. This can assist in limiting algae growth and maintaining a healthy pond environment.
Ideal for wildlife ponds, ornamental ponds, and natural water gardens, Fringed Water Lily is easy to grow and adds both colour and surface coverage during the warmer months.
