Default Nymphaea suggestion for a small pond


there is or are pygmy whites and from memory it is tetragonna alba,
however there is frequent confusion over the name and my first pygmy
white isnt a pygmy. I am trying a second from Paul Bromfields but dont
remember the name at the moment.
You might also like to look at "helvola" which is a yellow. If you
would accept other colours then look at rubra (a pinkish red) and maybe
Laydekeri_fulgens also a pinky red what I was sold as that is a pygmy
but I am not sure if it is correct. Aurora but that hasnt bloomed for
me yet.

If you are in the states you will probably have a greater choice range
but the above are available in the UK. Aside from the local garden
centre if you are UK have a look at

and perhaps http://tinyurl.com/c2opr
