Description
The American lotus (Nelumbo lutea) is a flowering plant native to North America. It is also known as the yellow lotus, water-chinquapin, or water lotus. The American lotus is a perennial aquatic plant that grows in shallow water or mud at the edges of ponds, lakes, and rivers.
The plant has large, circular leaves that float on the water's surface, and its flowers are large, showy, and fragrant, with yellow petals and a central cone-shaped structure. The lotus plant is highly valued for its ornamental and medicinal properties, and its seeds and young leaves are edible.
The American lotus is closely related to the more famous and widely cultivated Asian lotus (Nelumbo nucifera), but it has a more restricted distribution in the wild. Despite its beauty and cultural significance, the American lotus is not as well-known or widely cultivated as its Asian counterpart.
