Gorgeous color. Can't wait to see the other pics. I hope you got a closeup without getting wet lol.

How many of the water lotus do you have? They are the plant that really makes me regret not having a pond.

That was a single tuber last year and only had 2 blooms last year.

waterplants.com is the cheapest place I've found water lotus for sale at.

Very pretty..the lotus and the lily! I want more flowering plants for my pond.. but must be happy with the hyacinth as I have no shelves for my plants.
