Are these giant waterlilies or are they fake?

Hi there
These are the real Mccoy-Kew do not do fake!
I have been there when the pads have been enormous-they have to wade in and take some of them off to create room.They empty the pool over the winter and grow them on in the private bits of Kew not open to the public.
If you ever get to come to the UK put a visit here on your list!
Regards
Arlene

Those are very similar to the ones we have here, but don't look at spiky on the bottoms.
