We used to have this at my Grandfather's house in a little pond. It's one of the most beautiful flowers and a great plant. Sadly, they are not allowed here anymore. What great photographs! Happy MM David/ Tropical Texana/ Houston
Thanks for your wonderful comments everyone. you brighten up my day.
Traveling Hawk, Sandy, These flowers are water hyacinth (Eichornia crassipes). they are an ornamental pond plant and each bloom only lasts about a few days. glad you like them. I like the sweet shades of purple too. :)
Beautiful macro of this soft stunning graceful flower! I love how you captured the water droplets. Great color and compositions! Thanks so much for visiting my site and leaving your lovely comments..Cheers, Linda
