Scientific Name : Nelumbo nucifera

It is an aquatic herbal plant in the family Nelumbonaceae native to tropical areas in Asia.  Grown in mud but never stained, it has been acclaimed as the nobleman in the floral kingdom, and widely admired and glorified for purity and elegance by Chinese poets and writers for generations.  Commonly known as “Furong” or “Handan” in ancient times, it bears single or double-flowered flowers normally in pink and white colours, with its flowering period from June to August in Hong Kong.
