Lotus Bloomed!

My lotus plant has bloomed!

Beautiful!

I didn't know I bought a White Lotus though. I was expecting to  a rosy pink lotus flower.

When I first bought it , it only has 3 pathetic leaves size of a saucer plate. 2 of the foliage were slightly burn. I though I was quite foolish to spend couple of hundreds on this plant.

But now (after 2 months), Look at its gorgeous flower and healthy foliage. This fragrant Lotus flower opens in the morning and the petals start to fall in the afternoon. I will have a few more days to enjoy the beauty of this flower.

Same goes to my orchid plant. It due to bloom in September. But now earlier.

My friend said its due to the effects of  peer pressure that why it bloomed earlier.

And I have another orchid plant which is catching up soon.

I guess floras have their own language.
