This is a Sacred Blue Lilly, which is a close relative of the White Lilly, and often grows in the same biome as it. It grows along shallow rivers and parts of swamps. It only blooms during the late summer and will only bloom for three days before sinking into the water.
Winter Vegetation
During the Winter this plant is somewhat active but mostly dormant, and all original growths will usually grow brown and sink down, eventually breaking off entirely. This allows room for the new growths that will come during the Spring.
This is a picture of what Sacred Blue Lillies look like during the Winter. They usually go somewhat dormant, and some of the lilly pads will break down and then re-bloom in the Spring.
