| I have seven blossoms open and one bud sticking up out of the water. The pics don't show it but some are white and some are yellow.

| Beautiful! And just what I needed to cheer me up this morning =] Had to start from scratch with my lillies this yr & got a late start at that. I've got 7 lonely lil pads slightly larger than a silver dollar *sigh* I'll just sit and stare at your lovlies for a bit and dream about next year, lol. Thanks for sharing.. ~digger |

| Very nice Jenny! I finally got the hint from my waterlilies last summer, when they were crawling out of the pond and running into each other, to thin them and put them in different stocktank ponds. They've got alot more room now and I'm anxious to see how its paid off. I just wish I had more space for even more of them. They are really lovely. |

| Beautiful! Can you tell me how long you've had them? I planted mine (new pond) 6 months ago, and have only had 3 flowers. Also, is that "Attraction"? I ordered mine online, the flowers are yellow, but I thought they were supposed to be RED? |

| Pretty lilies Koijoy. Diggery...just give yours a couple more weeks. You'd be surprised. Casio...I still need to divide mine. The red is suppose to be Attraction.

| Mommasue, that tank looks so familiar. :o) |

| Thanks all for the compliments. This is the 5th year for my lillies. I don't know what kind they are. I know I planted red, white, yellow and blue. Last year there were too many airbourne pads and hardly no blooms. What little blooms there were remained hidden by the pads. One local nursery gives me $40 for 12 lillie tubers. I traded them 24. I am getting hardy water plants in exchange. Looks like I'll be making a few more trips before I'm finished. Jenny |
