Waterlily /Puttaruska $

Puttaruska

Nymphaea

Hardy Plant Bloody Dock

I’ve been lusting for this to come to market ever since I saw photos of the 2020 IWGS Best (Overall & Hardy) Waterlily, and Facebook posts of it ever since.  Hybridized by Pairote Thongnum of Thailand, and given a Russian name for good performance in cooler water.  Huge blossoms with a very high petal count have been given adjectives as “very vigorous,” “prolific,” and “intense yellow.”  Now, how can you argue with that?
