Meaning of rosa del nilo




Danilo Enrique Noreña Benítez

rosa del nilo
  24

It is one of the common and perhaps the least used names of an aquatic plant of beautiful flowers. It is better known as lotus flower, sacred lotus or Indian lotus. Its scientific name is Nelumbo nucífera and belongs to the family Nelumbonaceae. Generically it is also known as a lily. The technical term (or scientific name) "Nelumbo nucífera" means "water lily or aquatic plant that carries nuts". It is famous in part of its beauty, for the durability of the germinative potency of its seeds, as it is proven to be greater than several millennia.

See nelumbo nucifera; which to me is "nucífera", but they seem to accept both.
