The British yellow waterlily, scientific name, Nuphar lutea, also known as the charmingly named 'Brandy Bottle', is in flower from June to September. This native aquatic plant produces distinctive oval, cup-shaped yellow blooms (around 2-5cm across) that sit just above the water's surface.

Found in ponds, lakes, canals and slow-moving rivers, it thrives in still or gently flowing water, often in partially shaded spots. Unlike the more familiar white waterlily, its flowers are less showy but just as important for wildlife.
