Drumroll please! Finally...The Lotus Blossom!

Thank you:) Unfortunately, the flower "died" last night. So sad. This whole flowering bout is making it REALLY difficult to follow through on my plans to get rid of these lotuses:shake:
 
I've got another flower bud:D Its a little tiny bud at the very base of the plant - with the last bud I didn't notice it until it was already pretty big since I wasn't looking for it .

It'll be awhile before it can grow to the surface and blossom but wow....these plants are the coolest :cool:
 
Thanks kveeti. Can't wait for the other to bloom:) Flowers the size of a CD that grow from a fish tank aren't something I'm too used to seeing. Its so neat:)

I used stencils for the designs. I ended up having to free hand all of the edges because I forgot that the surface was too "grainy" from the wood and that the paint smeared/dripped.
