Good to see very beautiful water lillies now that all of ours are done for the season. I tried to grow some lotus but I guess the water temp stays too cold for it to grow well here in NJ. Too bad.
I don't know if lotus can grow there. I would think so because it grows well in England and you are not all that diffferent. If it's any consolation, lotuses commit suicide when they see me approach, so I don't even try.
Glad you like the pics and thanks so much for writing.
