Lotus & x28;Nymphaea& x29; is the genus name for aquatic plants from the Nymphaeaceae tribe. In English it is known as water-lily or waterlily. In Indonesia, lotus is also used to refer to plants from the genus Nelumbo & x28;lotus& x29;. In ancient times, people often confused plants from the genus Nelumbo, such as the lotus with the genus Nymphaea & x28;lotus& x29;. In Nelumbo, the flowers are above the surface of the water & x28;not floating& x29;, the petals are red & x28;white to yellow lotus& x29;, the leaves are full circle and the rhizomes are usually consumed. Plants grow on the surface of still water. Flowers and leaves are found on the surface of the water, coming out of stalks originating from rhizomes that are in the mud at the bottom of ponds, rivers or swamps. The stalk is in the middle of the leaf. Leaves are round or broadly oval in shape which are truncated at the radii towards the stalk. The leaf surface does not contain a waxy layer so that water that falls on the leaf surface does not form water droplets. Flowers are found on stalks which are an extension of the rhizome. Flower diameter between 5-10 cm.
