I'm so looking forward to seeing your pond this year,, Your pond thread is One I look forward to every spring/summer of each year since you've built it clap

This was the view from our deck yesterday in between severe thunderstorms. The water lilies seem to be loving this weather - lots of blooms so far this year! thumbup luv

Thanks Diane, Carol, and Sheri!

Here she is blooming yesterday. The picture doesn't do her justice - it's hard to get a picture while the flowers bob in the water, and my photo editing program quit on me. The photo makes her look a bit faded - she's much more vibrant than appears here.

I saw 4 more buds on the surface when I got home yesterday evening. luv

Thanks again Diane and Carol! The blooms last a couple of days, before they wind themselves down into the pot -
it's interesting to see the stems all wound around leaf stems when it does this.

Here is the pond today, on a beautiful day after yet another rainy day yesterday.
The plants are starting to grow out and look tropical once again.
