Water liies - three varieties. Victoria Amazonica at front. A "hardy" variety behind it - one of hundreds of varieties. A "tropical" variety to the right - the jagged edges differentiate this tropical variety from a hardy variety. Huntsville Botannical Garden

    Hey Larry! I fixed the links for you so the images should work. On the broken links you had "http://" twice in the URL, but I just deleted the extras for you. thumb.gif

    So interested that you cut one of the flowers open! My first thought was "Mmm, artichoke!" lol3.gif

    Thanks Schmoo!
    I was taking a class at the Huntsville Botannical Gardens and one of the leaders cut it open.
