Beautiful shots! The lily with the name Nelumbo nucifera, must be mislabeled…not a Lotus

Hi Matt,

I have several little ponds in my back yard and one of them has water lilies of the Eve’s Solitare variety. Unfortunately, thinking that this will provide the nutrients they’d love, I introduced koi fish which tend to nibble on the leaves and flower petals. So, they all look serrated. For next year I will definitely separate fish from plant.

Yours are so perfectly beautiful!

It's funny, from the first picture I saw my first thought was "I bet this post is about Longwod". I interned there a few summers ago in these very waterlily pools. It was probably the most fun I've ever had working. Great pictures, they really make me want to go back!
