*Planting Guide Included*
Nuphar lutea is the perfect solution for those of us with a flair for bringing a water garden to life. After all, with its ability to thrive in full sun or part shade and poor, sandy soils, it is one of the easiest plants out there. What’s more, you can plant it in containers or directly into the muddy bottom of natural ponds - so whatever your vision, this hardy perennial will see it through with ease! And while we love its self-seeding and rhizome spreading capabilities, you needn’t worry about fighting to eradicate it if it hasn’t been contained in containers – perfect for those who weren’t born green fingers! It even has an edge over Nymphea by being able to take more shade and stay submerged in deeper water – allowing your water feature to reach dazzlingly tall heights! Popular amongst those aiming for optimum growth, Nuphar lutea is definitely worth investing in for those looking for a showstopping result.

Shipping Information:
We don't want you to have any worries about your plant when it ships! We are a fresh to order nursery so we have no stock on the shelf. This is to allow us to provide you with the healthiest plants we possibly can! We collect and send out plants Monday and Tuesday so they won’t get stuck in the mail over the weekend. We label each species of plants individually with their scientific and common name. We fill the excess space in the package with air pillows and packing paper to prevent the plants from receiving damage during shipping.
Carbon Emission Statement:
We carbon-offset by using recycled boxes and packing material from our local area whenever we can, and as much as we can! As a Fresh-To-Order Nursery it's part of the job to try helping ensure that Earth lasts for generations ahead. While providing beautiful plants in these areas also requires taking care of the plants that grow there. Harvesting only occurs on acres pure untouched marsh or wetlands which provide habitats for wildlife, both now and hopefully for many years to come! It is our mission to preserve these areas.
