Water Lily

As most of you know this past May we put in a pond/waterfall. We have enjoyed it all Spring and Summer and are looking forward to the changes it will go through during the Winter. But the biggest surprise this weekend was the Water Lily! To be honest I have been so busy the last two weeks I haven't got out there much. So Sunday morning out I went to take some pictures of the last remaining blooms (Post to come) And to my surpise out Water Lily was trying to bloom. In just a few hours and with a little sunshine it opened up and it is just beautiful! We have been waiting all Summer and finally here it is.....

Look how cute it is! I think this plant is just amazing, just sits on top of the water and then all of a sudden it does this!

In just a few hours it went from the above to this!

A perfect bloom to end a not so perfect Summer! But there is always next year! Gardners must always have hope.
