Description
Beauty changes with age. A lotus plant's leaves float on the water and the flowers rise above the water. They are also called water lilies, and are in the Nymphaea family. This lily flower specimen is in Balboa Park's Reflecting Pool, which contains several species of beautiful water lilies. They are fascinating to gaze at for meditation and relaxation or to achieve a state of calm attentiveness in which one's actions are guided by intuition rather than by conscious effort. Perhaps that is the zen of gardening,
Balboa Park in San Diego, California, is one of the oldest and best parks in the United States.
