“It took me time to understand my waterlilies. I had planted them for the pleasure of it;
I grew them without ever thinking of painting them. ” – Claude Monet.

I adore these flowers. More for the fact that they fight their way up through mud and darkness to reach for sun. Even more that their roots are an interconnected world we do not see. As we all are…as we all should be.

haha I tried to get some shots of water lilies at a pond in North Austin. The flowers were gorgeous but the leaves were all chewed up and rotting in places.

Thank you for liking “Topiary.” Beautiful photos! 🙂 Water lilies are more reasons to love spring, summer, and fall. I thought they died off in the winter, but I found out that they are actually perennials and can survive the cold months with proper care.
