Water lilies are perennial aquatic plants with attractive petals and large, heart-shaped leaves that float on the water. The strong rhizome is buried deep underground, the leaf stems penetrate the water surface, and the leaves are dark green. Bowl-shaped inflorescences are 20 cm long and bloom from June to August. Water lilies grow in various lakes, slow-flowing rivers and bays. Its distribution area covers almost the entire world.
The beautiful water lily has been a source of inspiration for many artists and is a part of many cultures. The scientific name of water lily is Nymphaea, which refers to the goddess nymph in Greek mythology. Water lily flowers bloom during the day and close at night and in rain. Water lilies are poisonous, but they are used medicinally to treat muscle soreness and provide nutrients.
Water lilies provide a place for cormorants to rest near waterways, and the lily pads support a small beetle, the water lily beetle (Galerucella nymphaeae). The semi-aquatic rodent species muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) loves the succulent rhizomes of water lilies. Water lilies are also used as decorative plants in gardens.

Be careful not to damage the embryo inside when breaking the water lily seeds, otherwise the survival rate will be affected.
