Talk:Nymphaea nouchali var. caerulea

Inconsistency of fruit type
In the text it remains unclear what type of fruit this species produces. First it is stated "The fruit are berries," in the section "Description". Further down in the section "Ecology" it is stated: "The fruit suddenly bursts when ripe, and the scattered seed float away. The seed soon sinks." which is a contradiction. Berries are indehiscent, whereas the latter text section states the fruit is dehiscent, so it cannot be a berry. If the latter were true, I believe it were correct to describe it as a fleshy capsule instead. Conan Wolff (talk) 06:41, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
