A popular tropical lily is the 'Albert Greenburg'.  Its colors are outstanding and its leaves of mottled colors of burgundy and green bring additional colors to your pond.  A tropical lily will tolerate a wide range in soil and water pH, but they do best in a neutral to slightly acidic condition.  Tropical lilies thrive in water temperatures in the 80s and will provide you with outstanding colors in your pond throughout the summer.

This lily is a mixure of colors, ranging from pink, yellow and orange with its cup-shaped flowers that will get about 8-9 inches in diameter.  The spread of this lily will reach 6-7 feet so its a good lily for medium to larger ponds.  This is a good lily for those ponds that only receive some sun as it will bloom and grow with just four hours of sun.
