Do you think it could be "Javier G?" That's the only Javier on the biglist.

From Connell's: 4 ft tall, bright red 4-6 inch waterlily as seen below.

Here is a link that might be useful: Javier G

Thanks, Poochella. I think that must be the one. A friend who gave the tuber to me said its flower is red and it is in waterlily form.

You're welcome. I think I might have ordered ole Javier G for myself this year! Not sure, but it certainly is pretty.
