Lotus flower at KK Hospital garden

21 October 2005, I brought my son to KK hospital for follow up check up, after the consultation, we went to the near by garden beside the KK hospital, there is a lotus pond. I saw a beautiful lotus near the pond edge. I took a shot with my handphone. It is not very clear.

About White lotus

The white lotus is a shallow-water, night-blooming plant with a creeping rootstock (rhizome) that sends up long-stalked, nearly circular, dark green leathery leaves, which float on the surface. The flowers, up to 25 cm (10 in) across, remain open until midday. The blue lotus is a smaller, less showy day-blooming plant.
