An essential aquatic plant
The water lily is an aquatic plant whose leaves float on the surface of the water. Its flowers generally open during the day and close at night. They can be white, pink, blue or yellow depending on the species.
This plant plays an important role in basins by providing shade and limiting the proliferation of algae. Like the sacred lotus , it is often associated with tropical aquatic environments. She enjoys calm and sunny water.
