Kat sold me a huge pot of Celon Pink a night blooming water lily....It had tons of babies and she gave it to me for an exceptional price....Now I want to pass that generosity on.....


I have always loved the night blooming water lily....I love the way the flowers bloom almost flat.....

So, if you've never grown one and would like to, I have 3 that I will send for postage.  These are almost blooming size.

Let me know!

I bought this lily as a Joey Tomocik, probably 8 or 9 years ago......It's been so long that I no longer remember where I got it....This is the first I've ever seen it do this.....

Turtlemike,
When I saw the vivps I wondered if maybe the lily was something different than Joey Tomocik....Here are some pictures I took of it blooming today.....Is it god enough for you to get an idea of what it might be?

I've heard of hardy lilies being viviparous but have never seen one until now.   

This is a Joey Tomocik lily.

Has anyone experienced this before?
