Description
The Giant Platter Water Lilies, or as sometimes called the Royal Platter Water Lilies are my favourite plants to capture at different times of the day, and the main reason I visit the beautiful Longwood Gardens in Kenneth Square, PA annually.

Thank you. I believe it's called the (Victoria cruziana) Giant Platter Water lily, and its large and flat leaves have a very 'defensive' edges.

Thank you. I believe they are Royal Platter water lilies, or something like that. I should write these things down... They are really alien-like plants with giant spikes. My favourites.
