Answer:
Lotus plants have super hydrophobic surfaces. Water drops that fall onto them bead up and roll off. These leaves not only stay dry, but the droplets pick up small particles of dirt as they roll, so that the lotus leaves are even self-cleaning.
Explanation:
The water trucks off of the leaves of lotus because their leaves have a waxy coating. When water drops fall on this surface, they roll down, carrying dirt particles with them. ... The wax is also capable of self-regeneration.
