Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture
Nymphaea flavo-virens, Lehm. (N. gracilis of gardens, not Zucc.). Fig. 2552. Lvs. narrowly peltate, deeply and irregularly sinuate or nearly entire, suborbicular; angle of lobes rounded; under surface pure green (or purplish in hybrids); 15-17 in. across: fls. white, G-8 in. across; sepals pure green; petals 16-20, acuminate; stamens about 60, deep yellow; outermost filaments short, broad, petaloid; anthers with long yellowish appendage. Mex. —Crossed with N, capensis var. zanzibariensis, this species has yielded a progeny showing much the same variation as is shown by N. zanzibariensis itself. These are distinguished from forms of the latter by their more slender and acute petals and sepals, and smaller number of floral parts. They propagate easily from the tubers, bloom very freely, and include the best of the tender, day-blooming nympheas. The deepest blue is Grossherzog Ernst Ludwig; Wm. Stone is bright blue; Mrs. C. W. Ward, pink; N. gracilis rubra, red. Several other named forms have been offered, e.g., Antoine Chaize, A. Siebert, N. gracilis rosea. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
