Caspary and Nicolai assert that the cap continues to grow only for a very short period, after which no farther addition to it is made, though it is persistent, and not deciduous as in Nuphar (De Bary 1884, p. 413). In a root of N. flavo-virens from a plant just breaking from a strong tuber, the cap is short-conical and rounded at apex, with.
