Waterleaf

This average-sized flower grows up to 1.3 feet (41 cm) tall. Its brown stem is very thick, and the large, pink-red leaves are dark grey on the underside and are thick with tattered edges. The leaves alternate on the stem from the base up to about halfway.

Dozens of giant flowers grow in a bunch at the end of the stem. The flowers are 5 cm (2.0 inches) wide, with yellow petals and a yellow center. The flower head is largely flat with 37 raised round-tipped petals. They are very delicate.

It has a delicate scent that smells like citrus, and it has very little pollen; it does not cause any allergic reactions. It is pollinated by insects and is particularly attractive to butterflies.
