「睡蓮」(Nymphaea tetragona)是多年生水生植物中的經典品種,原生於溫帶至熱帶靜水域。其圓形葉片平展於水面,夏季會開出精緻的星形花朵,花色隨品種變化(常見白、粉、黃色)。栽培時需保持30-60cm穩定水深,並定期補充水生植物專用肥錠。冬季在寒冷地區需移至室內或深水區越冬。適合庭院水池或大型容器栽培,是營造水景的關鍵植物。
Small, slightly fragrant, cup-shaped Water lilies up to 5cm ( 2in ) across with slightly scalloped petals float atop round, mid green leaves from June to September. These award-winning pygmy waterlilies will happily grow in as little as 15cm ( 6in ) of water, and they are perfect candidates for a small pond or tub in a sheltered, sunny site. The shade cast by the leaves also helps to check the spread of the algae.
