So pretty. I’m a huge fan of the color coral and the pink/coral combination is lovely. Also, I like looking at spring flowers as we enter into winter. Keeps me from being fully depressed. Keep ‘em comin’! Junk Drawer Kathy´s last blog post ..Careful Where You Stick That
Hi drjay. I just noticed that W posted this the morning my dad died, but before he knew…7 a.m. actually. Anyway, thank you. The setting sun cast the golden light on this blossom. I’m glad W chose to post it–I hoard photos, for some odd reason.

Beautiful photo!
I used to grow Lotus commercially. What does the word ‘Padma’ mean?
That is stunning – is it real?
