Nuphar pumila, also known as the least water-lily or small yellow pond-lily, is an aquatic perennial plant in the Nymphaeaceae family. It is similar in appearance to the larger Nuphar lutea, but can be distinguished by its star-shaped stigma disc and smooth leaf undersides. Its flowers bloom from July to August and are pollinated by flies. This plant is typically found in sunny environments in lakes, ponds, and slow-flowing rivers in Europe and Asia, with some populations in North America. It is considered endangered in some European countries. Nuphar pumila has large floating leaves and smaller submerged leaves, as well as a thick creeping rhizome. It can be found in several countries, including the United States. In the Nymphaeaceae family, there are 70 species and Nuphar pumila is also known by several other names in different languages. The root of this plant has been used for medicinal purposes, particularly for digestive issues.
