Several sources describe it as very free flowering, and some also mention that it tolerates a bit of shade better than many lilies, though it still performs best in sun.

It grows from a small rhizome and forms a compact patch of pads, then flowers freely through summer. The cultivar name Doll House is widely used and easy to remember, which suits a small-pond plant that people often buy as their first lily.

Several listings quote a spread around 70 cm when grown in a basket, which makes it easy to fit into a patio setup. Flowers are star-shaped and very light pink, often with paler tips that give a slightly frosted look at the edges. Many sources describe a strong fragrance, which is unusual in a very small lily and a big part of its appeal. The blooms sit at the surface in calm water, and because the plant is compact, flowers do not get lost among leaves.

Plant it in a small to medium aquatic basket with heavy loam based compost and a gravel cap. Depth guidance is fairly consistent across listings for this cultivar, with many recommending around 30–50 cm of water over the crown. If your pond is deeper, raise the pot on bricks so pads reach the surface easily. Feed lightly with aquatic fertiliser tablets during the growing season, and remove old leaves and spent flowers so the small plant stays clean and open.

It works in patio tubs, half barrels, and compact ponds where larger lilies would smother the surface. The pads still provide shade and shelter for fish and invertebrates, but the small footprint helps you keep open water visible. Because the flowers are light and fragrant, place it where you sit nearby so you can enjoy both the colour and the scent. In a larger pond it also works well on a shallow shelf as a smaller companion plant, as long as you keep it away from more vigorous lilies.

Feed with aquatic fertiliser tablets through the growing season, as free-flowering cultivars need steady nutrients to keep producing buds.

It grows from a rhizome and forms a compact-to-medium patch of pads, then flowers from early summer into early autumn.

The main feature is the flower: fully double, cotton-white, and packed with petals. Several descriptions give around 57–62 petals and a bloom size roughly 10–15 cm across, with golden stamens tucked in the centre. Flowers open in daylight, and one nice trait noted by some growers is that blooms can stay open later into the day than many cultivars.

Use a wide aquatic basket with heavy loam based compost and cap with washed gravel. Start it on a shallower shelf so early pads sit on the surface, then lower the pot gradually. Depth recommendations vary, but a practical working range is around 15–75 cm of water over the crown, with many gardens finding the middle of that range easiest. Feed with aquatic fertiliser tablets through summer to support repeat flowering and to stop the plant putting all its energy into leaves. Remove old pads and spent flowers regularly.

Because the flowers are white and full, they look best when you can view them from the edge, so place the basket where you can see across the surface. In very small ponds, one lily is usually enough, and Gonnere can easily be the main feature plant. A wide basket helps Nymphaea 'Gonnere' spread evenly and stops the rhizome circling in a tight pot. If Nymphaea 'Gonnere' makes plenty of leaves but few flowers, feeding often helps more than moving it deeper.

It grows from a rhizome and forms a floating patch of pads, then flowers from early summer into early autumn in still water. People usually call it Albatross water lily, and the cultivar name is the one to use when you want the right plant.

Young pads are often described as purple or deep bronzed, then they turn greener as they mature. Leaves are typically 20–25 cm across with a rounded outline. Flowers are pure white with golden stamens. Depending on source, blooms are described as star-shaped or more goblet-like as they open, and flower size is often given in the 15–20 cm range. Some descriptions mention light fragrance. In calm water the flowers sit slightly above the pads and look very clean against the darker young leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive Albatross full sun for the best flowering, and keep it away from splashing water. Plant it in a wide aquatic basket with heavy loam based compost and top with washed gravel. Lower the basket in stages so leaves can reach the surface quickly, then settle it at a medium depth. Many UK suppliers recommend around 40–90 cm of water over the crown, and that range suits most ponds as long as the plant is not forced to stretch. Feed with aquatic fertiliser tablets during the growing season. Remove old pads and finished flowers so the plant keeps making fresh growth and the pond stays clear. Over winter, keep the rhizome below the ice line and avoid disturbing it until spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitability for Garden Ponds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlbatross suits medium ponds and larger wildlife ponds where you want good surface shade plus a clear white flower. A typical listed spread is around 80–120 cm, so it needs room, but it is not usually described as an aggressive runner. The pad raft gives cover for fish and helps reduce algae by limiting light penetration. If your pond is small, you can still grow it as the main lily, but plan to divide it when the basket fills so it does not crowd out open water. If Nymphaea 'Albatross' makes plenty of leaves but few flowers, feeding often helps more than moving it deeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Nymphaea 'Albatross' hardy in the UK?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.

It grows from a thick rhizome and builds a broad raft of floating leaves, then produces large flowers through summer. Gardeners usually shorten the name to Charles de Meurville water lily, and that cultivar name is the one worth using when you search or label the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cultivar makes plenty of rounded pads, with mature leaves often reaching about 25 cm across. Young foliage can show a bronzed tint before it settles to green. Flowers are larger than average and can reach about 20 cm across. The colouring is distinctive: outer petals look paler, while the inner petals deepen to darker pink-red tones. A bright centre of stamens adds contrast, and the blooms sit on or just above the surface in calm water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it full sun and still water. Pot it into a generous basket with heavy loam based compost and cap with washed gravel. Start it slightly shallower so new leaves can reach the surface without stretching, then lower the pot in stages. In many ponds a useful long-term depth is around 45–75 cm over the crown, and you can go deeper in larger water if the plant still reaches the surface cleanly. Feed with aquatic fertiliser tablets through the growing season and keep up with dead leaves so they do not rot in the pond. It is hardy, so leave it below the ice line in winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitability for Garden Ponds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharles de Meurville suits ponds where you want a bold flower and plenty of surface cover. It spreads to a wide patch, often around 1.5 m across, so it needs room and looks best when you do not crowd it with other lilies. The pads shade fish and help limit light for algae in summer, while the big blooms still show clearly above the foliage. In smaller ponds, keep it in a basket and be ready to divide when the rhizome fills the pot. A wide basket helps Charles de Meurville spread evenly and usually improves flowering. Keep a small patch of open water near Charles de Meurville so you can enjoy the flowers from the edge. If Charles de Meurville makes lots of leaves but few flowers, feeding often helps more than changing depth. Clear floating debris so buds on Charles de Meurville can rise and open cleanly at the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Charles de Meurville hardy in the UK?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
