Water Lily 3 @ Brookgreen Gardens - Murrells Inlet, SC, USA

Water Lilies are essential to the environmental health of freshwater ponds and lakes. Their large flowers and pads provide shade, thereby cooling the water. Colder water controls the growth of algae. Water Lilies also shelter fish swimming beneath the plants from the heat of the sun and predatory birds.
