Description
I chose to photograph this Director George T. Moore water lily in black and white to illustrate the beauty of the blossom with it intricate detail. the blossom it self in color is a fragrant, day-blooming, medium-sized, free-flowering, tropical water lily that features violet-purple, open star-shaped flowers (to 7-10 diameter) with yellow centers. Flowers bloom continuously from summer into fall. Each flower appears on a stalk above the water surface, opening in the morning and closing at night, and blooms for about 3-4 days. Oval-rounded, green leaves (to 10" x 12") have some purple blotching. Leaves float on the water surface. Leaf undersides are purple with well-defined green veins. Plants will spread to 5-8" wide.
I hope you have enjoyed this work. You can see more of my work on my homepage. Thank you for visiting.
