: Floating Elegance
Water lilies (Nymphaea spp.) are undoubtedly the queens of aquatic plants. Their large, round leaves float majestically on the water’s surface, and their beautiful, often fragrant flowers offer a color range from pure white to intense red. Not only are they beautiful, they also provide shade for fish and help maintain the water’s natural balance.
Care tip: For lush blooms, place in a full sun location in shallow water.
Lotus: Majestic Purity
The lotus (Nelumbo spp.) is a symbol of peace and renewal. It is characterized by its spectacular flowers, which grow above the water on long, strong stems. Whether white, pink, or yellow, each lotus blossom offers a true visual spectacle. Its ability to thrive in murky water makes it a plant extremely adaptable to atmospheric conditions.
Care tip: Place the plant in full sun and slightly cloudy water to promote faster growth.
