Florida swamp-lily emerges as an aquatic perennial featuring elegant, strap-like leaves that may reach lengths of up to 3 feet (90 cm), arching gracefully around the bulb's crown. Its distinguished flowers bloom in clusters atop thick, sturdy stalks, each with a trumpet-like form and delicate white petals, radiating a gentle fragrance. The bloom's striking stamens are notably extended, protruding past the six petal-like tepals. This plant thrives partially submerged with ideal water depths between 1-6 inches (2.5-15 cm), though it is capable of growing in up to 12 inches (30 cm) of water.
