Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily – A Small Red Gem for Ponds & Containers

The Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily is a true classic in the world of pond plants. Hybridized by Perry Slocum in 1983, this hardy water lily produces charming, cup-shaped blooms with rich, rosy-red petals that lighten gracefully toward the outer edges. Its heart-shaped green pads begin as purple-brown before maturing to a soft green, creating a striking contrast with the deep red blossoms.

Compact and reliable, Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily is a prolific bloomer from late spring through frost. Its petite 18–28 inch spread makes it a wonderful choice for small ponds, patio tubs, and container water gardens. The lightly fragrant flowers often appear in abundance, ensuring you’ll never see just one bloom at a time.

If you’re searching for a hardy water lily with brilliant color and reliable performance in limited space, this variety is a must-have!


Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily Proper Planting and Care

  • Container Size: Plant in a 12–14 inch wide container (fabric aquatic pots recommended).

  • Soil Type: Use heavy loam topsoil only (avoid bagged soils with compost, which float and rot in water).

  • Depth from Soil to Water Surface: Best grown 5–20 inches deep in the pond.

  • Sunlight Needs: Requires 6+ hours of strong, direct sunlight daily for abundant blooms.

  • Bloom Season: Steady blooms from late spring through frost when properly planted and fertilized.


Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily Fertilizing Schedule

  • Fertilize on the 1st and 15th of each month throughout the growing season (April–September).

  • Insert 2–3 Waterlily World Fertilizer Tablets into the soil, 3–4 inches deep near the crown.

  • Regular feeding ensures continuous red blossoms and healthy, vibrant foliage.


Do’s and Don’ts for Perry’s Baby Red Hardy Waterlily

✅ Do:

  • Plant in heavy loam soil in a proper aquatic container or earth-bottom pond.

  • Provide full, direct sun for the best flowering results.

  • Divide rhizomes every 1–2 years to prevent overcrowding.

  • Keep roots and stems moist during unpacking and plant immediately upon arrival.

❌ Don’t:

  • Do not use bagged compost soils, pea gravel, or stones — they suffocate or starve the rhizome.

  • Do not overcrowd this lily with floating plants or other lilies — it needs clear surface space for light and flowering.

  • Do not let the plant dry out; hardy waterlilies are sensitive to dehydration when out of water.

  • Do not plant too shallowly; blooms are most attractive when floating naturally on the water’s surface.

Looks nice, easy to install
Color: Rustic Brown, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22in
This shelf is lightweight, looks nice, and was easy to install. It comes with a little level to help you install it properly. There are plenty of mounting holes to choose from, so it is easy to screw it directly into a stud, or to just use holes that are convenient for you. It comes with a plethora of mounting hardware. I mounted mine a bit high up and chose to mount it upside down so that I wouldn't see the three screws that hold the shelf to the mounting bracket.

Exactly what I needed for my bathroom refresh.
Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches, Color: B. Rustic Brown - Americana Farmhouse Style, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22.5inches
I bought these floating shelves in the color Rustic Brown to replace a bulky storage shelf that was making my bathroom feel cramped, and they completely transformed the space. The wood finish looks much more expensive than I expected, and once installed they gave the bathroom a clean, modern, spa-like feel without taking up visual space. Installation was straightforward overall. I mounted one screw in the center into a stud and used drywall anchors for the remaining hardware, and the shelves feel very sturdy. They sit flush against the wall and don’t sag or wobble. I especially love how slim they are while still being deep enough to hold everyday bathroom items, decor, candles, skincare, and small baskets. The color worked perfectly with my bathroom vanity and mirror trim, and the floating design instantly made the room look more organized and intentional. Huge upgrade for a small space. Definitely recommend if you want functional storage that also looks elevated and minimalist.
