There just perhaps is something mystical about entering into a garden and feeling the flowers bloom, the trees grow green, and the water plants dance. The garden may be my sanctuary, but what surrounds me is where the beauty of nature presents itself with lotuses, rain lilies, blooms, and trees. Each individual plant is beautiful and happy in itself, and each "heart bloom" continues this feeling of being a fresh, peaceful moment.
Colorful blossoms of marigolds, roses
Besides the lotus and rain lilies, I like to see my garden full of seasonal flowers. Marigolds, hibiscus, and roses add color, warmth, smell, and butterflies and bees. I enjoy playing with seasonal combinations of flowers like sunny sunflowers to provide sunshine and little jasmine for evening smells. Each flower has its own season, so my garden looks fresh and vibrant all year long.
The Graceful Lotus and Water Lily
The lotus flower (Nelumbo nucifera) is the jewel of my garden. It is in a small pond, where the large, round leaves sit on the water surface, surrounded by the gorgeous blooms of pink and white flowers, high above the water line.

Whether I am watering the lotus, admiring the rain lilies after the rain has fallen, pruning flowering shrubs, or sitting under a tree in the shade, I am generally humbled by the peace of the garden. I recognized again how my garden has helped teach me both patience and resiliency in finding joy in growing things around me.
