Nymphaea violacea, also known as blue lily,[1] is a waterlily in the genus Nymphaea.

Distribution

Nymphaea violacea is found in Australia, particularly in the Kimberleys and in northern parts of Queensland and the Northern Territory.[2]

Description

The flowers are violet, blue or white.[2]

Uses

The waterlily is a bush tucker of the Aborigines in northern Australia. The tuber, stem, flowers and seeds are all edible

Like other species in the genus, the plant contains the psychoactive alkaloid aporphine (not to be confused with apomorphine) which provide sedative effects when ingested. ref>{{cite book|last=Ah Sam|first=Margaret|title=Mitakoodi Bush Tucker|year=2006|publisher=Black Ink Press|location=Mount Isa|isbn=1-86334-009-2|pages=7}}
