About the species
A beautiful and very varied species from West Africa with green to reddish-brown leaves and varying numbers of purple spots. Can grow from 20-80 cm high. Before floating leaves form, Nymphaea lotus (zenkeri) forms many underwater leaves. If you don't want floating leaves, prune the roots and leaves.
The beautiful, aromatic flowers can be fully appreciated in open aquariums. A nutrient-rich bottom encourages growth. Often available in a red and a green variant. Recommended as a solitary plant for large aquariums.
