This Bloomin' Lily was located in front of the Botanical Gardens in Balboa Park, San Diego... the gardens there are absolutely amazing. A plethora of flora and fauna of ginormous variety. They even have an area inside by the entrance where you can touch, smell, rub all of the plants and ask all kinds of questions. What started out as a security person saying, 'you can touch them if you'd like' ended up with the entire area surrounded by adults acting like kids, giggling, asking questions and talking like we'd all known each other forever. It was great fun!
beautiful, beautiful! I love the way the lily pads LEAP off the canvas!
