Nymphaea ‘Forget-Me-Not’

Nymphaea ‘Forget-Me-Not’

Nymphaea ‘Forget-Me-Not’ is a tropical lily created in 2004 by Garet Uemura. It is a viviparous smoke-light blue flower with white at the base of each petal. Leaves are green on top and bottom. Highly viviparous.

Here is Garet’s description…

Hybridized in 2004 by crossing two unnamed lilies.  This lily has fairly large flowers (for a viviparous lily) that are light blue with creamy white-blue at the base.  Flowers have approximately 16 petals.  The outside of the sepals are solid green.  The tops of the leaves are green and the bottoms are purple.  The leaves on this plant are highly viviparous.

I almost threw this lily away…hence, its name.
