Notes
'Escarboucle' dotleaf waterlily (Nymphaea 'Escarboucle') is a perennial for containers and low maintenance water gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and moist, loamy or clay soil. The flowers are fragrant and bees visit them. Each plant can spread about 47 to 59 inches, so give it plenty of room.
Pairs well with Bowl of Cream peony, Canada wild rye, and Orange lily.
