Meanings of nymphaea in английском

I have read somewhere that it delights in eating the nymphaea, or water-lily.

The natives also brought us some roasted nymphaea roots, which they call dillii.

Her eyes resembled the full-blown blue nymphaea; her arms the charming stalk of the lotus; her flowing tresses the thick darkness of night.

The Rio Tuy winds through districts covered with plantains, and a little wood of Hura crepitans, Erythrina corallodendron, and fig-trees with nymphaea leaves.

We made a long herborization in a thick forest, extending beyond the Hato, and abounding in cedrelas, browneas, and fig-trees with nymphaea leaves.

Wherever there are deep declivities, or masses of rocks half covered with mould, the clusia or cupey, with great nymphaea flowers, displays its beautiful verdure.

That is certainly the case with the Nymphaea thermarum.

The Nymphaea thermarum was the garden's pin-up for International Day for Biodiversity, in May 2010.

As well as being hard to get at, the Nymphaea thermarum were not flowering in January.

We encamped at a fine Nymphaea lagoon, in the rich shade of a white drooping gum tree.

What you cannot have. The first batch of Nymphaea thermarum seeds arrived at Kew in July 2009.

Butomus esculent; Lotus of Egypt; Nymphæa

Its sandy and occasionally rocky bed, was dry; but parallel lines of Nymphaea lagoons extended on both sides.

I threw a tin canister over to them, and they returned me a shower of roasted Nymphaea fruit.

In the lower part of the gully, we came upon some fine Nymphaea ponds and springs surrounded by ferns.

Nymphaea (Nymphaeaceae).-ProfessorCaspary informs me that some of the species are quite sterile if insects are excluded.
