YES! The waxy coat of the water hyacinth leaves is waterproof and covers a spongy parenchyma tissue. Together with its swollen stem, which is filled with more spongy parenchyma tissue, it makes the plant float.
Harder the better. Waxy leaves minimize the loss of water by transpiration
The waxy transparent layer of leaves prevents water evaporation.
Lotus have waxy coating on the leaves to protect them from water.
A waxy layer called the cuticle prevents water loss in leaves.
The waxy substance that leaves are covered in is called cuticle. It helps to prevent water loss from the leaves and provides protection against pests and pathogens.

Yes a leaf can not have a waxy surface if it is so adapted. The waxy surface is designed to keep water off, and inside of the leaf. Leaves in the rain forest often have a waxy surface to keep from being constantly saturated in water.
