Introducing the Exquisite Helvola Water Lily

Bring charm and elegance to smaller ponds or water features with the delightful Nymphaea 'Helvola', the smallest hardy water lily variety available. This miniature beauty features star-shaped, lemon-yellow blooms that rise gracefully above the water’s surface from late spring through early autumn. Each blossom is complemented by attractively mottled green leaves, adding texture and interest to your aquatic garden. This hardy water lily was hybridised by Marliac.

Ideal for container ponds, small tubs, and tight spaces, Helvola thrives in shallow water and full sun, making it a favorite for those looking to add a splash of color without overwhelming limited spaces. Despite its petite size, this hardy variety is remarkably resilient and returns year after year with minimal care.

Perfect for adding a bright, cheerful accent to any water garden, Nymphaea 'Helvola' proves that good things truly do come in small packages.

Cultivating Your Helvola in India:

The Helvola thrives in the Indian climate with proper care. Ensure the following for optimal growth:

  • Soil: Use any top soil without cocopeat mix. Clayey soil is most suitable. Detailed planting & care guidelines are included with the plant. Please refer to the knowledge base & FAQ’s for more details.
  • Water: Avoid hard water. Any potable water, including tap or borewell water, is suitable.
  • Sunlight: Provide a minimum of 5 hours of direct, unfiltered sunlight daily.
  • Pot/Container: Use a pot or container with a minimum diameter of 30 inches and a height of 15-18 inches. Fiber, plastic, or concrete materials are ideal for heat retention.
  • Pest and Disease Control: Keep an eye out for common water lily pests like aphids or snails. These can be treated with appropriate organic or chemical controls, following manufacturer guidelines. Regularly inspect the leaves for signs of disease and take action as needed.
  • Winter Dormancy: In colder Indian regions, the Helvola (Pygmea) may enter a period of dormancy during winter. Reduce watering and fertilization during this time.
  • Pruning: Remove any dead or decaying leaves to maintain the plant's health and aesthetic appeal.

100% Outdoor Plant: The Helvola is a fully outdoor plant. Ensure it receives ample sunlight as described.
