I’m putting together a larger post that will go up later today, but here’s a preview of the lotus I saw at the Montreal Botanical Gardens back in August.

Love the lotus but I am not going to put in a water garden.
I’ve seen them growing in pots! Believe me, I’ve thought about it, but that train of thought leads to overwintering issues and… forget it.
I’ve found that there is no way to take a bad picture of a lotus bloom. I don’t know what it is, but they seem to have some kind of intrinsic glow about them. Every picture turns out beautiful.
