{"product_id":"rose-arey-water-lily-pond-plants-sw09","title":"Nymphaea 'Rose Arey'","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNymphaea\u003c\/i\u003e 'Rose Arey' is a hardy water lily selected for reliable flowering and steady growth in outdoor ponds. It develops from a central rhizome and produces floating foliage that spreads gradually across the surface. This cultivar is generally known only by its registered name rather than a separate common name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAppearance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew leaves often emerge with a soft bronze tint before maturing to green. Pads sit flat on the water and create even coverage without crowding. Flowers rise just above the surface on firm stems and open fully in bright daylight. Petal colour remains consistent through each bloom, and the central stamens provide clear contrast. Flower size stays in proportion to the plant, giving a balanced appearance in the pond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant in a broad aquatic basket using heavy loam based compost topped with washed gravel. Lower gradually to a final depth of around 30 to 60 cm once growth strengthens. Full sun encourages stronger flowering and compact growth. Feed with aquatic fertiliser tablets during the growing season. Remove ageing leaves and finished blooms to keep the plant active. As a hardy variety, it remains outdoors over winter provided the crown stays below frozen water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSuitability for Garden Ponds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cultivar works well in small to medium ponds where measured spread is preferred. It expands steadily rather than aggressively. The floating leaves provide useful shade for fish and help reduce algae by limiting light penetration. It can act as a single focal plant or combine with marginal species for structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Rose Arey hardy in the UK?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, it is a hardy water lily and tolerates typical UK winters when planted below ice level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow deep should I plant Rose Arey?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlant so the crown sits around 30 to 60 cm beneath the water surface once established.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes Rose Arey need full sun?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFull sun produces the best flowering, though light shade is acceptable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly does Rose Arey spread?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt spreads at a steady, manageable rate and is easy to control in a basket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"Is Rose Arey hardy in the UK?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"Yes, it is a hardy water lily and tolerates typical UK winters when planted below ice level.\"\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"How deep should I plant Rose Arey?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"Plant so the crown sits around 30 to 60 cm beneath the water surface once established.\"\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"Does Rose Arey need full sun?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"Full sun produces the best flowering, though light shade is acceptable.\"\n      }\n    },\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"How quickly does Rose Arey spread?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"It spreads at a steady, manageable rate and is easy to control in a basket.\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}\n\u003c\/script\u003e","brand":"Lincspplants","offers":[{"title":"Loose Root","offer_id":51236416618776,"sku":"SW09-loose","price":9.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kit","offer_id":51236416651544,"sku":"SW09-kit","price":11.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Potted","offer_id":51236416684312,"sku":"SW09-pot","price":19.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large Kit","offer_id":51236416717080,"sku":"SW09-large-kit","price":33.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Litre Premium Potted","offer_id":51961232818456,"sku":"SW09-5-Litre-Prem","price":36.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/2075\/9064\/files\/product_r_o_rose_arey_2-scaled.jpg?v=1765309012","url":"https:\/\/sarracenia.house\/products\/rose-arey-water-lily-pond-plants-sw09","provider":"Sarracenia House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
