Flower

After taking this flower, i wonder what is look like, and yes, i can see it's ear look like rabbit ear. So cute, and somehow, it's funny how the flower shaped and look like the other living creature.



White Lotus blossom almost like a snow flake - a Cambodia dwarf lotus. This white mini-lotus was almost haunting me since days. The mini-lotus ( may be a dwarf lotus ) is so tiny and cute yet most difficult to photograph. Today however was my lucky day in a lotus pond area far from my place. The price for the dwarf-lotus photos: A whole bunch of leeches on my legs! Nothing serious, but now I know that we have many different types of different leeches in Cambodia! Different colors and different sizes.

The size of the small lotus blossom is about as wide as my thumb! The anatomy and physiology of this lotus is different from other lotus seen so far and later I may elaborate more in details.

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."
