Snow Princess Hardy Water Lily – A Delicate Miniature White Lily

The Snow Princess Hardy Water Lily is a petite masterpiece, bringing pristine white blooms and charm to even the smallest ponds and patio containers. With its compact size and graceful form, Snow Princess delivers the beauty of a full-sized waterlily in miniature scale — ideal for small spaces, tubs, or decorative water bowls.

Each delicate flower measures 1–2 inches across, resting above tiny green pads (1–4 inches wide). Despite its small size, Snow Princess is a heavy bloomer, producing fresh blossoms from late spring through early fall. The blooms open in the morning and close by late afternoon, each lasting several days.

This miniature variety’s vigor and reliability make it one of the finest small hardy lilies available — a favorite for collectors and gardeners seeking refined elegance in limited space.


Planting & Care Instructions

  • Plant Size: Miniature hardy waterlily

  • Spread: 1–2 feet across

  • Suggested Container: 6–12 inch wide aquatic fabric pot or small pond shelf planting

  • Planting Depth (from soil to water surface): 3–12 inches; shallower placement (3–8 inches) encourages prolific flowering

  • Soil: Heavy loam topsoil or PondGro Aquatic Loam Soil. Avoid bagged composts, peat, or aquatic media, which float or rot underwater.

  • Sunlight Needs: Full sun — at least 6+ hours of strong, direct sunlight daily

  • Water Conditions: Still or gently moving water preferred; avoid fountains or splashing on pads


Fertilizing Schedule

  • Feed on the 1st and 15th of each month during the growing season (May–September).

  • Insert 2–3 Waterlily World Fertilizer Tablets 2–3 inches deep around the rhizome crown.

  • Consistent fertilization supports nonstop blooming and healthy growth.


Fragrance

The Snow Princess Hardy Water Lily has a light, clean fragrance that enhances its delicate, refreshing aesthetic — subtle but lovely when the blooms open fully in morning sunlight.


Water Lily Planting Tips

💡 Plant Snow Princess in shallow water (3–8 inches) for abundant flowering.
💡 Use small, wide containers for patio ponds or half-barrels.
💡 Position where it receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
💡 Avoid strong moving water — still ponds encourage the best bloom display.
💡 Divide annually in spring or early summer to prevent crowding.


Do’s & Don’ts

Do

  • Plant in full sunlight for maximum blooms.

  • Use heavy loam soil for stability and nutrient retention.

  • Fertilize twice monthly during warm months.

  • Divide and repot annually to maintain strong growth.

  • Keep the rhizome crown just above the soil line.

Don’t

  • ❌ Don’t use gravel, compost, or bagged potting soil — they float or decay underwater.

  • ❌ Don’t plant too deep; this small variety thrives near the surface.

  • ❌ Don’t allow floating plants or larger lilies to shade it.

  • ❌ Don’t delay planting — miniature lilies dry out quickly if left unplanted.

  • ❌ Don’t overcrowd — give each plant open surface space for light and air.

Repurchased in King Size – Still Love These Cooling Pillows
Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling), Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
After using the queen-size version of these pillows for over a year, we purchased the king-size set when we upgraded to a king mattress. Both my husband and I really like them. The cooling feature works well, and we like that each side feels different—when I run cold, I use the softer bamboo side, while my husband prefers the cooler side since he tends to sleep hot. They fit well in our king-size pillowcases and feel supportive in all sleeping positions, whether I’m on my stomach, side, or back. I also appreciate that you can remove some of the filling to adjust the firmness. The covers are washable, which makes them easy to maintain. Overall, we’re very happy with this repurchase and the long-lasting comfort.

Not great at cooling
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
Each pillow cover has 2 sides, one marked for cooling, and the other a different fabric. The cooling side is about the same effectiveness as having a silk or satin pillow cover. It's only cool when you first touch it. The cooling side doesn't seem to absorb or wick moisture, so if you are sweaty - it keeps the moisture in place. You'll definitely want a regular pillow case over the pillow cover. In fact, if you suffer from night sweats, the non-cooling side is actually more comfortable. The pillow fill is ample, and simple to squish around for more support for your neck, etc. Think bean bag. But it will retain your impression after use. I find I need to do as I did when I had down pillows - give it a few good shakes in the morning when I make the bed to get it evened out for the coming night. In all, it is a well-made and comfortable pillow to sleep on, but it does not excel in cooling.

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to. 1000% love these.

The Perfect Firm Pillow l
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
It is everything it claims to be, cool, comfortable and strong. I got this for my husband first, he loves it and then got one for my son, he uses it to support his knees and has been sleeping much better since then. They both needed a firm pillow that is not super soft, firm but not achy. Finally found the perfect one.

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.
