Right now, there are many pink and yellow water lilies decorating the pond, with several small vertical lotus leaves emerging near them. Hope you enjoy these images.

Water Lilies and Lotus Leaves
It is always very exciting to see the emergence of the Lotus Leaves scattered around the pond. The first leaves to emerge are the flat ones that are similar to those of water lilies. The real indication that there will soon be a lotus flower is the upright leaf.

June 1 Garden Flowers
After weeks of rain and a soggy backyard, the perennials are coming into bloom. Early! Today, I took pictures of the pink and white peonies, the orange poppies, giant allium, and the blue and purple iris. The pond is encircled by yellow iris that have spread by their own methods of distribution from the original plant. On the surface of the pond are many first leaves of the lotus flowers, which look very similar to water lily leaves, but are too numerous to be the latter.
Hope you enjoy these images.
