White Water Lily Standing Up

This is such a lovely white water lily standing up in the pond in all it's beautiful glory.Water lilies are actually called Nymphaeaceae and live as rhizomatous aquatic herbs in temperate and tropical climates around the world. The white water lily is the national flower of Bangladesh and State flower for Andhra Pradesh, India. The Blue waterlily is the national flower of Sri Lanka. It is also the birth flower for July. The water-lily has a special place in Tamil poetics, where it is considered symbolic of the grief of separation; it is considered to evoke imagery of the sunset, the seashore and the shark.
