Lovely! My lotus is in a black pot, sitting in the sun, so the water gets hot very early in the season and stays hot - over 100 degrees. This encourages early growth. I have to put several inches of water in the pot each day to both maintain a water level and to cool the water somewhat. It also peters out earlier than one of yours would. I can tell mine is starting to give out already.
These are the 11th and 12th flowers on the Super Lotus Juwuba.
