Water Lilies

These are harvested from a big pond at our place. There are actually 4 types growing there. Can only collect in a severe summer drought.

Harvesting at this time, also means I can not differentiate between plants. There is a big white, 2 types of pink and a small, late flowering yellow.

Tough variety of water lilies, that can survive being out of the water over summer, as ours do. Once the rains come, they awaken with new growth very fast.
