Purple Water Lily (Nymphaeaceae) - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

We have a water lily plant in our garden and it doesn't flower very often. But when it does, what a sight! The water lily has a beautiful light purple flower with a bright yellow sepal. 

Water lilies are divided into two categories; hardy and tropical. This one is a hardy water lily since it only blooms during the day.
