First water lily bud reached the surface yesterday. After our warm, dry

Gloomy wet day today, but the flashes of color from the koi brighten things
up.

We've had one of the coldest spring in a long time, yet a bud has
cleared the surface.

Interestingly, one opened about 8 inches under the surface about a week
