Tropic Waterlily Nymphaea St Louis Gold


The St Louis Gold is a bright yellow free flowering waterlily. Since it is a tropical waterlily it requires water that is 75 degrees Fahrenheit or warmer. It has a day blooming fragrant flower and olive leaves. New leaves are bronze. This photo was taken at the water garden at Como Park.
