My Lotus has bloomed, http://darofamily.com/jeff/easyurl/pondphotos.htm.
Click on July 28th for pictures. I also think I have a raccoon or other
critter visiting. Some of plants are knocked over, and two of the planters
are moved off their shelves. Also found some interesting droppings near the
pond edge.
