Santa Cruz water lily blooming now
In the tropical greenhouse you can witness blooming of the second biggest water lily in the world – Santa Cruz water lily (Victoria cruziana). It is closely related to Victoria amazonica, which was discovered by Czech botanist Tadeas Heanke in 1801. It was named in tribute to Queen Victoria.
