About Europe - Underwater Fauna and Flora

White Water-lily – Nymphaea alba L.
White water-lily belongs to the water-lily family (Nymphaeaceae) and a group of aquatic plants called hydrophytes. Water-lily is a perennial, herbaceous, rooted plant, the rhizome of which is placed horizontally and is located in the mud. The leaves are large, round with a deep cut, on long petioles, and can be submerged or float on the surface of the water. The face of the leaf is shiny, with a thick layer of cuticle that protects it from water retention and rotting. The shiny surface of the leaf reflects the sun´s rays, so that excessive temperature does not occur on the surface of the leaf. The flowers are above the surface of the water, large and individual, white, sometimes pink. The plant blooms from June to September.
