Nymphaea zenkeri, the red tiger lotus, is a flowering plant of the family Nymphaeaceae that grows in various parts of East Africa. This species is known for its brilliant reddish-purple tinted heart-shaped leaves.
Similar to the Nymphaea lotus, this species of water lily-like plant has lily pads, which float on the water, and blossoms, which rise above the water.
Its unique and vibrant appearance makes it a popular choice for freshwater aquascaping in planted aquariums.
