Thank You! all! I tip my hat to you.

Cal, the lily lives in a large plastic tub, but I'm looking for something bigger to grow it in, because after only a couple of months, it has already outgrown it.
I don't know its name. It is a division from a water-lily that has grown in my parents' pond since I was a kid.

Yes, I agree with everyone, and as Laurie said, to have an heirloom plant that's
been in your family. Very special. Smiling
