JAMESBRYDON
Medium-sized water lily with pads from 12 to 15 cm in diameter, and 10 cm flowers.
Sturdy plant with cup-shaped, fuscia-coloured blooms. A contemporary of Monsieur Latour-Marliac, Dreer was the first significant aquatic nurseryman and hybridizer of water lilies in America. He introduced Latour-Marliac's varieties to that country, and Latour-Marliac introduced his to Europe -- and to Claude Monet at Giverny in 1904.
