My Lotus
Last Spring I got some lotus seeds from my mother- in- law. In her hometown, people grow lotus to get its seed. I carefully cut one seed open by with a saw. It was quite dangerous because the shell of the seed was round and hard,I almost cut my finger. I put the seed into a bottle of water,a few days later it had grown grew out some roots. Then I transferred it into a big bowl with some water and mud. Later it grew out sprouted green leaves whose size was which were much smaller than those that grow grew in a lake. Also, it didn't flower last year.
This summer we see it flowered ing unexpectedly. It holds its leaves gracefully up around its blossoms. The tip Top of the petals pedals are red, and it looks like a girl who has varnished her nails.
