Crocus - the first flowers of spring 2008


Beautiful Cambodian pink Lotus. At this point of the lotus life cycle, the lotus blossom starts to develop an abundance of sweetest nectar and radiates a honey in a honey comb like fragrance. Specially in morning hours when lotus nectar is freshly available, lotus blossoms enjoy vivid visits by many different insects feeding on delicious lotus nectar. Lotus nectar is delicious - I tried lotus nectar repeatedly myself when working amidst lotus ponds and lotus fields!

Rachel De Thame picks her favourite part of the show. "One of the highlights of Tatton for me are the bedding displays. The RHS/ Ball Colegrave National Flowerbed Competition is great and the displays are done better here than anywhere else. It's done much bolder, brighter and better up north and the bedding schemes certainly show that." hare_200x200.jpg "The exhibitiors work very hard on their flowerbeds and often put a lot of humour and skill into them. I particularly like the bed that's like a ploughed field complete with its own hare. There are some great designs with really interesting stories behind them."

In addition to t he previous photos with white dwarf lotus blossoms - here you see a photo of small white dwarf lotus flower group next to full size Cambodian white lotus. This photo shows you a natural environment - very murky, very muddy water with deep muddy soil. The photo also shows you the proportion of the tiny dwarf lotus blossoms and dwarf lotus leaves compared to the "grown up lotus" of the neighboring Cambodian white lotus flower.
While the water looks dirty, it is brown from clean natural mud - an environment free of major chemical pollution or industrial pollution. We luckily have NO industry within long distance from here. What a blessing to be living in true nature!
The lotus pond here is surrounded by rice fields and other ponds with a variety of aquatic life, aquatic flowers and plants, fish, and lots of leeches of different kind.
