Water Lilies
Debbie's water lily bud inspired me to finally get around to sharing some of the lilies that have been blooming. They got off to a slow start with the cool spring, but are strutting their stuff now!
Hardy Water Lily 'Highlight'
Hardy Water Lily 'Mangkala Ubol'
Hardy Water Lily 'Florida Sunset'…one of my favorites!
Hardy Water Lilies 'Colorado' and 'Mayla'
The tropical lilies are just getting started. This is 'Miami Rose'.

Thanks for the comments, everyone!
The ponds aren't at their peak, yet, so I haven't taken many full pond shots, yet, this year. This is our largest pond...not completely finished, yet.
We have 3 ponds...I've posted pictures in older threads. However, most of these lily pictures are from plants in our holding tanks.

Well done, starting out with classy varieties of waterlilies growing with enough space between to see them among stylish reflections.
It looks like you struck a happy balance there, that pond will be quite an asset for many years...
Regards, andy

Victoria lilies outdoors, I suppose I could dream.
