Here’s an entry for Jez’s Water, Water Everywhere Photo Challenge. Where would water lilies be without water or the lady who takes care of them? All pictures taken recently at the Chicago Botanic Garden.

The Nature of Things 
I love waterlilies. These are gorgeous!
It did seem like an exceptionally good time for them.
Definitely.
Great photos of them, Sue.
Thank you, Jo!
Water Lillies…Nature’s wonders.
Yes indeed!
I liked the blueish one. I have not seen one like that before.
They do have a wonderful and varied collection of water lilies at the Garden.
Stunning photos of these water lilies.
Thank you, Anne! I can never resist taking a few more pictures of these flowers when I visit the Garden.
The first shot is the foremost among the beauties. 🙂
Thanks, Janet!
So very elegant waterlily flowers, Sue!
I wish I had a pond in our garden so I could try growing them, but seeing them at the Garden is the next best thing.
Beautiful pictures of the water lily’s! ❤️
Thank you, Nadine!
You are so very welcome!
Incredibly beautiful, Sue. Thanks for sharing these beauties!
Thank you for visiting, Amy.
Wonderful photos of some amazing water lilies. I never knew there were so many varieties and colours.
Thank you! Apart from the fact that they are such beautiful flowers, it’s so much easier to take a picture of a flower that isn’t constantly blowing about in the wind.
I’ve actually never seen them fully open, great pictures!!
Thank you, Angel!
Such delicate flowers. Nicely captured.
Many thanks, Rupali.
