Garden journal entry |

May 11, 2014. You may recall that we broke down and purchased a lotus last year. It did nicely in our big pond last summer and fall, so I've been eagerly awaiting its return this spring. And getting a little concerned, when by early May there was still no sign of life. So one of the first things I did upon returning from vacation today was take a look at the big pond. And the news was good: a single lotus leaf floating on the water's surface, with evidence of a few more coming. Now I know that lotuses awaken a lot later than waterlilies, and I won't need to be so concerned next year! Meanwhile, I hope to see the lotus get bigger and better this year, now that it has settled comfortably in its new home. |
