This is the lotus in my pond, which blooms like crazy. It's a pale yellow - the flowers only last two days, but to me, that's part of the beauty of them - they are fragile and temporary. The lotus in the bowls were purchased at a local pet store (where I buy fish for my pond - a neighborhood heron keeps cleaning out all my fish) - the guy at the pet store didn't know what color the two I have in the bowls are, but the price was right (and I didn't care about color - I just wanted a pair of lotus for the bowls).
