Nymphaea 'Queen of Siam' (Aquatic) (Tropical Waterlily) - Dark pink blossoms contrast beautifully with its dark maroon mottled foliage. Highly viviparous and floriferous. Although waterlilies perform best in full sun, 'Dauben' has been noted for tolerating as few as two hours of sun. Not too cold hardy. Tropical waterlilies will suffer when water temperatures drop below 41° F. Prefers 64°-95° F for optimum growth.
