Nymphaeaceae (Waterliles)

Waterlilies were among the first flowering plants (angiosperms) to evolve and they’re at least 125 million years old. If you build a pond, and you want a waterlily it’s recommended that you put it in a pot. If you plant it in the soil, it spreads by rhizomes, and pretty soon it will fill up all the available space.

These photos were taken yesterday at Beaver Lake in Vancouver’s Stanley Park. Stanley Park was established in 1886 and, at 1001 acres, is one of the largest city parks in the world (Central Park in New York is 840 acres). Beaver Lake is a natural feature in the center of the park. Unfortunately, in 1936 fragrant waterlilies were introduced to celebrate the parks 50th anniversary. This is the result.

Beavers returned to Beaver Lake in 2008 after an absence of sixty years. Beavers eat waterlilies but these beavers had better get busy. As you can see, waterlilies grow like a “weed’.
