Mayla or not?
« on: August 22, 2010, 10:57:29 AM »
I have a water lily that is tagged Mayla.  It has been neglected in a shady pond for several years and has not bloomed.  This year I repotted and put in a pond that gets full sun.  It has grown by leaps but still has not bloomed. 

I took it out of the pond to prepare for shipping and am now wondering if it is a Mayla.  Does Mayla have speckles underneath the leaves?

I really don't know why I am having doubts.  I usually don't mess up the tags.

Just wondering because I am sending these out as Mayla but don't want it to be a mistake.

Any thoughts?

Mayla does not have speckels under the leaves. I should know but I can't remember right now for sure but I think it is red with green veins. Yes red with green veins.

Thanks TMike,

I didn't think so, but wanted to be sure.
