Growing White Water Lily Flower Time Lapse (88 Days)

This shows how a water lily plant growing in 88 days from a tuber to blooming. The chosen variety was a cold hardy Nymphaea Colossea. The tuber was burried into a container that was half-filled with muds and water. It then started developing lots of pads/leaves, which floated on the surface. After 70 days, a bud shot up and bloomed into a white water lily flower. It then kept developing more leaves and flowers.
Water lily flowers typically bloom with their petals widely opening during the day. By sun-down, the petals will shut themselves and resembled their bud-like form. These cycles will repeat for some period before wilting. If flowers are pollinated, seeds will be developed inside.

Near where I live there is a place called cross winds marsh There was thousands of water Lily's in bloom. One of the prettiest things that I have seen.

That last bloom said "Wait a minute!" "I didn't get my close-up Mr. Deville!"😁

Do you think you'll make more of these videos, but with other types of aquatic plants? Like elodeas, valisnerias and more.

[@eLapseTime]

Definitely, we love aquatic plants.

Why not plant horizontally?

[@giorgoszafeiriadis1141]

What is the soil? Just soil or something else?

[@eLapseTime]

It's mud that we got from a pond near by.
