Thousands of Lotus flowers and more
BEST TIME: December – February
Can you imagine being in a place so beautiful, you never want to leave. The walk around Lotus Lake is one of those places. The lake produces the largest display of lotus flowers in the garden with over 10,000 blooms on display. The featured flowers are Carolina Queen Lotus (pink) and Cream Lutea Lotus (white) with blossoms as large as a dinner plate.
The gardens edging the pathway have all been carefully created and planted with exotic flowering plants, adding to the wonderful vistas. Featured flowering plants include a range of salvias, impatiens, succulents, cordylines, begonias, canna lilies, crepe myrtles and pagoda vines. A banana palms and cocos palms provide shade as you wander, along with numerous reed covered rotundas offering great vantage points to take in the serenity.
A special feature of the walk is the rare Golden Lotus. This spectacular double yellow flower has more petals than any other lotus in the garden.
