Almost all white lotus harvested - except this beautiful forgotten lotus. The beauty of flowers often is emphasized when shown in contrast with other flowers. Such as the beauty of this forgotten white lotus certainly is emphasized vs the background pink lotus and vice versa.
The beauty of all mankind as well becomes apparent when different people - black and white, male and female, young and old - all are joint in a loving neighborhood.
Imagine how boring life would be only men on this entire planet - no single female woman at all. Do you really make sure that the female world around you knows how much you appreciate this most beautiful gift of love God gave to a man?
And what about you girls ... Do you show your appreciation and love toward all men or the one very special one in your life or do you wait to show your love until all men are gone except one single forgotten man ...
It is part of human ego to start appreciation after we have lost the loved one.

I'm never quite sure what to make of the floristry tents at shows, the displays are always fantastic but I'm not sure quite what the average person can take away from them. Tatton is no exception, this year the tent is dominated by an enormous display of giant bamboo canes each supporting a tropical arrangement. This 'Bamboo Forest' is all the work of the Welsh College of Horticulture, (the team that brought us the giant ball of flowers at last year's show).
Once again their display was awarded gold, and I have to admit that it was very striking so I could see why. While nobody is going to create an arrangement on anything like this scale at home, there were some nice plant combinations of orchids and exotic foliage that would look great on anyone's dining table.
While wandering through the display my eyes were also drawn to a large exhibit created by North Warwickshire and Hinckley College that has been inspired by the planets of the solar system. Very apt considering it was only a few days ago, that we were all celebrating the anniversary of the first moon landings. Each of the planets were created in different colours, with red anthuriums for Mars and equisetum strands for the rings of Saturn. At the centre of the display the Sun was created with a stream of exotic orange and yellow arum and some kangaroo paw cascading down like flares radiating out from the centre.
