Notes
'Panama Pacific' dotleaf waterlily (Nymphaea 'Panama Pacific') is a perennial for containers and low maintenance gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full or part sun and moist, loamy or clay soil. The flowers are fragrant and attract bees. It can spread 47 to 71 inches wide, so give it plenty of room.
Pairs well with Papyrus, Taro, and Giant chain fern.
