Description:

The Nymphaea 'James Brydon' is a classic hardy water lily that has remained a favourite for nearly a century. With its deep rose to carmine red, peony-shaped flowers, it adds a rich, elegant touch to any pond or water feature. The fragrant blooms, reaching 10–12 cm in diameter, stand out beautifully against the plant’s green, often bronze-tinted leaves.

This versatile variety adapts well to tubs, containers, and ponds, making it an ideal choice for container water gardening. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, it is also more shade-tolerant than many other lilies, requiring as little as 3–4 hours of sunlight per day. It flowers continuously from early summer to autumn, offering a long-lasting display.

Perfect for both small and large water features, ‘James Brydon’ is a reliable, free-flowering choice that brings charm and sophistication to any aquatic space.
