Aquascape Waterlily Collection

Welcome to the Aquascape Waterlily Collection, a curated showcase of exceptional waterlilies growing in both our Signature Pond in front of our building and The Lilyway, a small, formal pool located next to the parking area. Our living collection highlights a diverse range of colors, forms, and bloom styles, from bold, vibrant showstoppers to soft, romantic pastels. Each lily is selected for its beauty, performance, and ability to thrive in a natural ecosystem pond.

As you explore the collection, you’ll discover how waterlilies transform a pond into a dynamic, ever-changing work of art. Their floating leaves provide shade and protection for fish, while their blooms add color, texture, and seasonal interest from late spring through fall. Each variety featured here represents the harmony between aesthetics and function that defines the Aquascape approach.

These lilies often feature the vibrant colors and blooming habits of tropical varieties with the improved cold tolerance and reliability of hardy waterlilies, making them a versatile and exciting addition to many ponds.
