Nymphaea capensis
This lily grows best in shallow water and prefers strong sunlight.
Seen in a pond in Pana'ewa Rainforest Garden.
I'm not sure if all of the lilies pictured are the same species. Some looked more purple than pink.
I also have a sneaking suspicion that the second photo shows a different species than the rest.
Ruby Prakash, thanks. I also happen to know that my spotting belongs to the genus Nymphaea, but I'm waiting for someone to suggest a species level ID for me. :)
beautiful. think this belong to Nymphaeaceae. http://www.google.co.in/#hl=en&tbo=d...
