Description	The plant has flat, plate-like leaves that rest on the surface of the water, and produces white, pink, and yellow flowers in favorable conditions in the wild. In addition to the graceful appearance that a water lily gives to your pond, it is also a very useful aquatic plant. The water lily leaf covers the surface of the water and in this way blocks the sun and thus the heat. As a result, the water heats up less quickly and this ensures that there will be less algae growth. Water lilies also extract nutrients from the water which can therefore not be used by floating algae or filamentous algae. The basic requirements for successfully growing water lilies indoors are to provide carefully controlled water temperature and quality, and an exceptional amount of light. These plants need at least four to eight hours of full, direct sunlight a day to thrive.
