[5 photos]

In Japan, tropical water lilies cannot survive the winter unless they are kept in a greenhouse.

The difference from temperate water lilies is that tropical water lilies extend their stems from the surface of the water and bloom.

Temperate zone water lilies bloom on the surface of the water.

A temperate water lily with a long stem probably bloomed when the water level increased, and then the water level dropped.

Water lilies last for about three days.

Therefore, the flowers are relatively beautiful on the first day after the stamens open.

By the second and third days, the petals will begin to show stains and wilting.

If you want to capture a beautiful figure in a photo or video, it might be a good idea to look for the one from the first day.

Also, if you see beautiful flowers on the second or third day, you can say that you are lucky.
