AMAZONIAN WATER-LILY Amazonian Water-lily Victoria amazonica or V. regia which grows in Brazil is an enormous water-lily that has leaves nearly two metres across. The leaf is heavily-veined and its edge turns up to form a rim. The flowers are white when they first open in the early evening and within two days they have changed to pink or red. The fruit is a large berry. There are two species of Victoria and they are indeed the giants of the water-lily family. [CH] {EN}
