A blooming lotus on the water
A large lotus flower fills the foreground with many open petals arranged around its center. Wide leaves spread across the surface of the water around the bloom, and a closed lotus bud stands on a slim stalk toward the upper right. The open area above the water gives the scene a quiet, uncluttered setting.
Interesting facts about lotus plants
A lotus anchors its roots in mud while its leaves and flowers rise toward or above the water's surface. Its leaves have a water-repellent surface, so droplets tend to gather into beads and roll away. A lotus bud gradually opens into a broad flower and later develops a distinctive seed head.
