Slow-moving rivers, ponds and lakes
are the habitat Of a flower which, as
most everybody knows, is the water
lily.
Did you ever know what gave the
leaves and blossoms of the water
nymph' their shining appearance? It
is due to an oil which prevents water
remaining on them and clogging the
little mouths, or stOmachs, through
which the plant breathes.
The leaves are large, flat and nearly
round. The blossoms are very snowy.
measuring, in our common American
species, nearly six inches ACROSS. In
color they are white, pink and yellow.
Water lilies are particular about the
weather in which they bloom. On fine,
warm days the flowers open in the
morning and close at night, but on
dull, chilly days the flower does not
venture forth.
One member of the family, Victoria
regia, which grows in South America.

with curious rim that gives it a tray
like appearance. The leaves are strong
enough to hold two men.
