Nymphea lotus

Nymphea Lotus, also known as water water lily, is a common aquatic plant that can be found in lakes, ponds and streams in many regions of the world. This plant is often cultivated in aquariums for its beauty and decorative properties.

The Nymphea Lotus has dark green leaves that grow rosettes on floating stems on the surface of the water. The leaves are slightly in the shape of a heart and have a smooth and velvety texture. The plant also produces cut flowers, which can be white, pink or yellow, depending on the variety. The flowers develop from a solid peduncle which rises above the water.

Nymphea Lotus is an easy -to -grow plant in aquarium, but it needs a lot of light and a substrate rich in nutrients to develop properly. It can also be propagated from cuttings of stems or leaves, which can be sunk into the substrate to form new plants.
