Stunning......so nice to have a place close to home filled with stunning flowers! Next to cactus blooms I'd say waterlilies and lotus flowers are my next favorite...unfortunately here in Phoenix AZ we don't have a lot of lily ponds (LOL) I may start posting once our Arts & Crafts Fair is over this Saturday....have a glorious day Val....=^..^= #10884226
