Quick Overview:

Texas Dawn is a hardy, very free-flowering water lily with bright yellow flowers that are held several inches above the water and a lemony scent. It blooms well into the fall and tolerates part shade. ln late summer and fall the flowers may take on an attractive pink cast.

Description

Easily grown in wet soil in still water in full sun to part shade. Full sun may be best, but plants will usually flower with as little as three hours of sun per day. Plant rhizomes horizontally in spring with bud end up in containers submerged in ponds or water gardens where the water is 12-48″ deep. When planted in containers, plants can be more easily moved later on if desired. Rhizomes may be planted directly in the muddy bottom of a pond.  (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Gardens Plant Finder)
