The Nymphaea 'Joey Tomocik' is a popular, free-flowering hardy water lily known for its large, star-shaped, deep yellow flowers. It is a premier choice for medium-to-large ponds, featuring fragrant blooms that rise 7.5–15 cm (3–6 in) above the water surface from June to September.
Key Characteristics and Description:
Flowers: Deep yellow, star-shaped (stellate) blooms with 26–28 slightly rounded petals, measuring 10–15 cm across. They are slightly fragrant and held well above the water.
Foliage: The leaves are mid-green, often with brown flecks, and are nearly round with a slightly open sinus, measuring 20–25.5 cm. They emerge with a reddish-purple hue.
Growth Habit: This is a rhizomatous, hardy, and vigorous perennial suitable for water depths of 30–90 cm (1–3 ft).
Spread: It has a medium spread, typically 120–150 cm (4–5 ft).
Conditions: Thrives in full sun in still water, making it ideal for ponds and lakes.
Planting and Care:
Depth: Position with leaves resting on the surface, initially in shallow water (approx. 20 cm) and lowering it to 30–90 cm as it grows.
Maintenance: Prefers rich soil and benefits from aquatic fertilizer tablets (e.g., Growth Balls) for prolific blooming. Remove old foliage and flowers to maintain water quality.
Best For: Medium to large, sunny ponds; excellent for providing shade to control algae and offering resting spots for wildlife
