Hi all--

I'm long-time gardener, but new to aquatic plants.

I have a 24" wide & 25" tall container with a bubbling filter where I'd like to add a lotus & perhaps a water lily.

Container is in a wide breezeway & gets only 2-3 hours of late morning to mid-afternoon direct sun / day, but very bright reflected light for most of the rest of the day.

Any suggestions about the right Nelumbo and Nymphaea? I was hoping for orange, because the rest of my containers & plants in the breezeway are orange, blue and grey blue...but my online search suggests orange Nelumbos images are photoshop, not real.

I've found plants on website pondmegastore.com, but am looking to narrow down the sun / part shade plants.

Anyone who has experience w/ Nymphoides hydrocharioides?
Nelumbo White Lotus?
Nelumbo Carolina Queen Lotus?
Jack Wood's White Knight Night-blooming Lily?
Nymphaea x Albert Greenberg?
Nymphaea x 'Chrysantha'?
Nymphaea x Comanche waterlily?

Will these plants thrive in my conditions?

Thank you!
