Virginalis Hardy Water Lily – A Classic White Beauty

The Virginalis Hardy Water Lily is a timeless classic and one of the most beloved white waterlilies ever created. A masterpiece from the renowned French hybridizer Joseph Bory Latour-Marliac, Virginalis has been admired for over a century for its large, pure-white, cup-shaped blooms that float serenely on the water.

Each flower opens with flawless form — elegant, slightly pointed petals arranged around a glowing golden center. The blooms are gently fragrant and sit gracefully above deep green pads, creating a look that feels both regal and peaceful.

Refined yet vigorous, Virginalis is a reliable perennial that thrives in a wide range of pond types, from formal koi ponds to natural earth-bottom settings. It’s a must-have for any water garden that values classic beauty and enduring performance.


Planting & Care Instructions

  • Plant Size: Medium-to-large hardy waterlily

  • Spread: 4–5 feet across

  • Suggested Container: 15-inch or larger aquatic fabric container, or plant directly into an earth-bottom pond

  • Planting Depth (from soil to water surface): 6–30 inches; blooms best between 8–18 inches

  • Soil: Use heavy loam topsoil or PondGro Aquatic Loam Soil. Avoid bagged compost, peat, or aquatic planting media that float or decay in water.

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

  • Water Conditions: Still or calm water; avoid placing near fountains or splashing features.

  • Blooming Habit: Steady, dependable bloomer throughout summer.


Fertilizing Schedule

  • Fertilize on the 1st and 15th of each month (May–September).

  • Insert 4–5 Waterlily World Fertilizer Tablets 3–4 inches deep around the rhizome crown.

  • Consistent feeding ensures large, luminous flowers and continuous blooming.


Fragrance

The Virginalis Hardy Water Lily emits a light, clean fragrance that enhances its serene visual beauty — subtle enough for formal water features but pleasantly noticeable when you’re nearby.


Water Lily Planting Tips

💡 Plant shallower (8–14 inches deep) for quicker establishment and more blooms.
💡 Use wide containers with heavy loam soil for healthy root expansion.
💡 Divide rhizomes every 2–3 years to maintain vigor and ensure consistent flowering.
💡 Keep the water still for the best bloom display — avoid aeration directly over the plant.
💡 Trim away yellowing leaves and spent flowers to encourage continuous new growth.


Do’s & Don’ts

Do

  • Plant in full sun for abundant blooms.

  • Use heavy loam soil for root stability.

  • Fertilize regularly for the strongest flowering results.

  • Divide every 2–3 years to refresh growth.

  • Keep crowns slightly above the soil surface when planting.

Don’t

  • ❌ Don’t use gravel, compost, or lightweight soil mixes — they cause poor growth.

  • ❌ Don’t bury the crown under soil or stones.

  • ❌ Don’t overcrowd; lilies need space and sunlight.

  • ❌ Don’t plant too deep if heavy blooming is desired.

  • ❌ Don’t delay planting; lilies must stay wet and be potted immediately upon arrival.

Classy fully automatic watch - lots of bling too
Watches with a mechanical movement are becoming more mainstream despite the impact of smart watches and quartz movement timepieces. With a pure mechanical watch, there are no concerns about battery charge so when you pick it up from the nightstand, all you would have to do is give the stem a twist to wind the main spring, reset the time and off you go - and that's only if it has stopped. If it hasn't stopped (it won't if you wear it every day or have a watch winder) you strap it on and you are all set. I gave this watch my regular accuracy test set against a clock linked to the atomic time source. To my great surprise, it was as accurate as one of my much more expensive mechanical watches (how much more expensive? This watch costs about the same as the sales tax on the most pricy watch in the closet !!) I use the included watch bracelet tool to remove a link from the watch to get a proper fit. Including the tool in the box saves you the $10 plus fee a jeweler might charge you to make the adjustment - very cool. And you probably will need to remove at least one link - some may need to remove two - since the bracelet has a generous size. Speaking of the bracelet, it's beautiful. I wore the watch today to church and a friend said it had "heavy duty bling" ... But she did say she thought it was beautiful and I concur. Finally, The way the bracelet clasp works is reminiscent of a Longines bracelet i have and that spells quality to me. The dial is black with chrome shiny minute markers so visibility in good light is excellent. I do not detect any glow in the dark markings on the hands or the minute markers - factor that in for your purchase decision. I see this watch as serving as your "good" watch for business wear, to don for a meal at a fancy restaurant or for that big date night. I think it has a classic look that (despite the bling of the bracelet) is conservative enough for anyone and any business situation.The only place I wouldn't wear it is to the beach or the gym despite the fact that it has claimed that it is waterproof to depths you probably will never experience. Accurate, beautiful, real quality that translates to good value and capable of being almost anyone's "good" watch. Recommended

Es muy elegante
Color: 3316:white band white dial
The OUPINKE Automatic Two-Tone Skeleton Watch is a stylish timepiece that blends luxury design with mechanical craftsmanship. Its gold and silver stainless steel construction gives it an elegant, premium look suitable for both formal and casual occasions. Design & Appearance: This watch stands out with its two-tone bracelet and gold-accented bezel, creating a bold and sophisticated aesthetic. The dial features crystal-style hour markers, multiple subdials, and a visible skeleton window at the bottom that showcases the internal movement. These details add a high-end feel often associated with more expensive watches. Movement & Performance: It uses an automatic mechanical movement, which means it winds itself through the motion of your wrist—no battery required. This is a major advantage for watch enthusiasts who appreciate traditional watchmaking. The watch also includes useful calendar features such as day, date, and month indicators. Build Quality: The stainless steel case and bracelet feel solid and durable. The polished finish enhances its luxury appeal, although like most polished watches, it may show fingerprints or small scratches over time. Comfort: Despite its robust design, the watch is comfortable to wear. The bracelet is well-balanced, and the clasp keeps it secure on the wrist.

Exceptional quality
I have only had the watch for a few days, but Oupinke watches are very high quality. It keeps time very well and serves as an attention grabber. Great value for the money. It isn't easy to determine where it was made, but it is a Chinese company. Don't stop there with preconceived ideas about cheap products and low quality from China. These watches are exceptional, high-end, and dedicated to creating a brand that endures and stands for quality, rather than simply turning a profit. I would put this watch against those that cost 3-4 times as much. If you are a watch enthusiast, they are worth adding to your collection.

Higher quality than I expected, especially for the price. I have recieved lots of compliments, but I have never told anyone what I paid for it. I use it for a daily wear, and when I go out for dinner.

Good Watch - Hard To Adjust Band
The good: Good quality. Keeps accurate time. The not so good: The not so good is not a problem with the watch but a problem with adjusting the metal band. And that is not the band's fault. That's my fault. To adjust the band so it fits the wrist one must take out links in the band. A tool comes with the watch to aid link removal. I just could not do it. So I replaced this band with another metal band that has a quick adjust magnetic closure.
