Murasaki Shikibu (Black Beauty) Tropical Water Lily

The Murasaki Shikibu Water Lily, also known as Black Beauty, is a rare Taiwanese bowl water lily that delivers dazzling charm in a compact package. Perfect for container gardens, whiskey barrel liners, small ponds, and petite water features, this enchanting tropical variety produces vibrant purple blossoms with a graceful, exotic look. Flowers measure 1.5 to 3.5 inches across, growing larger as the plant matures, and appear in abundance throughout the summer. With its modest 3-foot spread, this tropical gem is ideal for gardeners who want the beauty of tropical water lilies without the need for a large pond.

Murasaki Shikibu Water Lily thrives when planted in an 8-inch fabric pond pot filled with heavy loam soil, set at a depth of 4–12 inches beneath the water’s surface. To achieve its best blooms, give it full sun—at least 6 hours daily. Fertilize with two Waterlily World Fertilizer Tablets on the 1st and 15th of each month during the growing season. Shade or indoor growth will prevent blooming, so keep this beauty outdoors where sunlight can reach it. Offered as a live pond plant during spring and summer, it’s a wonderful way to bring Far Eastern elegance into even the smallest water garden.

Exceptional quality!
I have had these dishes for two years and highly recommend them. For the price, it is unbeatable. These have the benefits of significantly higher priced dishes. They are a solid weight, which is an important factor in preventing them from being too hot to touch after microwaving. When filled with freshly brewed coffee, the mugs can be on the verge of being too hot to touch, but there is no issue if holding from the handles. I have a fireclay sink that could cause issues with weaker dishes. The handles on the coffee mugs have proven durable over time. I have never experienced a crack in the mugs, even where the handles meet the mugs. I have dropped dishes over time. These do not splinter or shatter into tiny pieces like comparably priced dishes. These crack into large pieces. I have endured chips and cracks in a bowl and plate. Neither broke apart further, despite hot or cold temperatures from microwave, dishwasher, or ice cream. I have not experienced any staining over time. The dishes clean very well in the dishwasher. The minimalist style, weight, and functionality of these dishes compare to sets that cost significantly more money at luxury brand stores.

Good design and size.
I was surprised at the quality. of this dish set. The cups were well balanced and delightful to use. The bowls are of good shape and just the right size for a bowl of cereal or soup.

Minimalist, imperfect but certainly reasonably good for the price
This is a set of 16 pieces, all of which are usable and practically sized, including the coffee/tea/beverage cups. While this is absolutely not high quality it is more than expected for $30 or so. The dishes are on the heavier side, not very lightweight brittle. I doubt they are break resistant. While they appear bone white, which they are, I'm not sure they are pure white (almost.) Some dishes will feature some small imperfections, like a small dot here and there, nothing too terrible. Stacking them is where you'll notice that the large plates are absolutely not perfect and you'll see that the ends are not perfect by rotating the plates and you'll notice areas they go slightly up and down. Again, nothing really noticeable or terrible unless you stack them. If you've got a dorm room, don't care too much about having anything more than a minimalist set of reasonable quality dishes that you won't get embarrassed about for serving casual meals, this makes for a decent set. Hopefully they are safe (supposedly Amazon says they are) and they are made in China. If you're wondering about branding, on the bottom of each item there is a conspicuous amazon basics logo.

Great starter set
They are very nice. Great starter set. They don’t feel cheap. The only issue I have is that the bowls are small. That is only picture I took.

Nice everyday dishes for the price.
Nice everyday dishes for the price. The plates and bowls are generous sizes. The coffee mugs are a bit small if that is a concern. The dishes are sturdy and should hold up well for everyday use.
