The normal color of lotus leaf is white, very elegant, but it will become transparent after rain or watering, very strange. When the petals meet with water, the water will seep into the space between the petals, and slowly the whole flower will become crystal clear. It's just a physical phenomenon, not a chemical reaction on the Internet
So this flower is also called "skeleton flower" or "crystal flower". "Skeleton flower" is because the whole pattern of petals will be clear after it becomes transparent.
When the water on the flower disappears, it will naturally return to white again. This kind of plant is difficult to raise at home, and most of them grow in the mountain forest, so it is more peculiar and rare.
In fact, in addition to this plant, there are other plants that also have this phenomenon, such as: anemone, Swertia, Gentianaceae and Japanese holothurian. They also become transparent after being showered or watered.
This kind of plant is loved by many plant lovers, especially when the petals become transparent, they will take photos to record this strange moment, and the beauty of this plant and flower is a kind of enjoyment when viewing.
