Water Lillies

Hi!
Isn't it truly amazing how plants can survive a long bitter winter under water?! I was so happy to see my water lilies peeking up at me from under water. After a truly miserable winter, they are a refreshing sight!
These water lilies are in my grey water garden out back. This series of ponds filters and feeds the water discharged from my washing machine through my garden. Soon they will grow up to the surface and float gently as the water flows through and will be covered with beautiful white and pink flowers.
My little ponds will be alive with water lilies, birds, butterflies and the occasional garter snake.
