Winter in Houston is known for a wide range of temperatures throughout the season. I thought my Colorado waterlily was getting ready to sleep for the winter, but last week it pushed out another flower bud. With the milder temperatures forecasted for this week, it may yet bloom. Perhaps next week’s macro shot will be the actual flower?

So far today it did not open. It may have aborted – it was cold last night, but expected to be warmer this week. Maybe……
