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.

Great product if you know what you’re getting.

It’s a great product if you know some details before you purchase. Specifically, for how much it cost it’s a great product. After assembly it is sturdy and will hold anything you’ll be displaying on it within reason. Speaking of assembly, it’s straight forward and intuitive if you’ve assembled other things such as a basic end table. What you should know: it does not come with instructions. It’s not hard to figure out but if you’re someone that needs instructions this product isn’t for you. That being said, if you see what you bought it’s not hard to look at the picture and assemble it. It does not come with the shelves. If you can’t buy them premise or make them then this product is not for you. Lastly, and this part is important to me, not all the pieces are straight after assembly. I used a level to mount the product on the wall and make each shelve straight. However, due to the factory produced screw grooves it is not perfectly straight. If you need it perfectly level looking this product is not for you. Refer to my pictures and you’ll see how the left bar looks crooked even though I mounted it level in every way. However, it gives it a more rustic, modern farmhouse feel that we wanted. Otherwise, a great product. I am still very happy for what we paid for. I would recommend the product and buy it again.

Great product!

This is my second time purchasing these shelves. They are easy to set up, come with all the screws, brackets, and drywall anchors (if needed). I definitely love the quality, look and versatility. Being that my ceiling is slanted I couldn’t mount them from there but easily mount them to the surface beneath the shelving. My husband loved my idea and how they turned out! Highly recommend!

No Instructions - Easy to build and study
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I ordered 3, and my wife loves the look of them. They seem to support a decent amount of weight. I supervised my 7 year old (55 lbs) as she scaled a single shelf bracket up the wall after it was mounted, without the planks. You do need to have some amount of handiness to be looking at buying as it does not come assembled, and does not have the wood planks with it. A little learning curve I had. Keep the rods only hand snug, not tight, snug, and then as you put it up to the wall adjust as needed to get the heights and widths right to the opposing shelf. There is also only 8 pipe brackets to hold the shelves down (2 per shelf) and I did not realize this at first and assumed I had 16 (4 per shelf). I had to go back and fix.

Game changing storage!
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I love the shelves. I got to use my own wood which was a reclaimed piece that I found and sanded and then stained. I'm so proud to see them on the shelves. It got so much clutter corralled from around the room and put in one place where it all looks good displayed together. The support pieces are very good quality and I found this to be very good value for the price. I'm very happy with this item.
