aesop
Loc: Finger Lakes area, NY
Lotus blossom going to seed showing the pod. Each pore contains a seed for next year's plant. Below is a pod ready to fall and reseed.
Wonderful and instructive photo of this unique plant; no wonder that the ancient Egyptians used the flower as a hieroglyph for "eternity" (1 million years).
