A brief definition of water lily vs lotus flower.

When common language differs from scientific language, then I prefer common people's language.

Some of the lotus photos shown are well defined lotus flowers, while others may also be called water lilies by some, specially by scientists.

In the peopleŝmind and heart often all are lotus flowers. However there is a small difference. As a general rule those lotus flowers having seeds / fruits are quiet generally agreed to be lotus. Those without the seeds are often also called water lilies. From a spiritual point of view there is far less difference between the spiritual nature of both. Hence I may call water lilies also lotus.

The lotus bears fruits - nut like and delicious, but has far less nectar. In exchange for missing fruits the water lily has a daily high volume of sweetest nectar.

How confusing the naming policy of lotus / water lily is may be seen across the www and seen on examples such as image captions like "Lotus Flower In Lilly Pond" so what is it a lotus flower in lotus pond or a lily in lily pond ...

I love a and use to call both lotus!

But to satisfy both searches and both naming-"fans" - the one searching for lotus, meaning lotus and the one searching for lotus but meaning "water lily" I may name it for all searchers of this beautiful exotic and blossoming water plant.

Hmm, I think a little flowerbed reshuffle is on the cards when I get home or possibly even flowerbed creation. I might have been suffering from the gardeners' affliction of my eyes being bigger than my garden. The car looked like a mobile greenhouse on the way back down the M6 but I bet we weren't the only car on the motorway adorned with foliage. Clematis x aromatica and C. flammula mysteriously found their way into my jute shopping bag, along with a really pretty Nepeta govaniana that I'll have to sneak into the back of a border. I find that yellow flowers divide gardeners in the same way as the variegated/non variegated debate but I can't resist yellow. I don't mind if it's a perfect sunshine yellow, wholesome and cheery or an acid greeny yellow, I'm quite happy with anything in between. The N. govaniana has delicate pale, lemony yellow flowers and is perfection in plant form. Lobelia tupa is a plant that I have been hankering after for a long time and now I am the proud owner of one. Carol Klein warned me about its hallucinogenic properties when she spied it my bag. Everyday's a school day at these shows... A tiny little blackcurrant sage completed my purchases, Salvia microphylla var. microphylla I couldn't resist its tiny little magenta pink flowers and scented foliage, I know that it'll thrive in my garden and it was a bargain, that's my excuse! tortoise_200x200.jpgOne item I would have loved to have brought home with me was this chap. My soon-to-be-husband and I have a little Russian tortoise called Claude so I am very fond of these slightly grumpy shelled creatures. Even though Claude has an uncanny habit of homing in and munching on any plant that I have struggled to grow or is very rare or special, I don't know how he does it! On second thoughts perhaps a stone version is a brilliant idea...

Purple lotus in a clean green aquatic environment. Beautiful purple color - the purple lotus blossoms only in morning hours. Amazingly the purple lotus starts to close is blossom daily as early as 11 AM. Best time to make purple lotus photos is 8-10 AM with lotus blossom wide open and brilliant each day.

One lotus blossom at its peak beauty - the next lotus bud ready. Lotus flowers are rich in blossoms during a long blossoming season. As one blossom gets ready to expire, the next bud gets ready to deploy its divine lotus beauty.

Rachel De Thame picks her favourite part of the show. "One of the highlights of Tatton for me are the bedding displays. The RHS/ Ball Colegrave National Flowerbed Competition is great and the displays are done better here than anywhere else. It's done much bolder, brighter and better up north and the bedding schemes certainly show that." hare_200x200.jpg "The exhibitiors work very hard on their flowerbeds and often put a lot of humour and skill into them. I particularly like the bed that's like a ploughed field complete with its own hare. There are some great designs with really interesting stories behind them."
