Monday Mosaic #30

Another visit to the Muttart Conservatory.  It is refreshing to see flowers blooming in the midst of winter.

I visited all four pyramids. The feature is still set up for Chinese New Year - the year of the Ram. That is where the water fountain was set up.  From a bit of research it is a steel cup cascading water fountain.  There was a pink/purple peace lily. In the tropical pyramid the waterfall ends in a pond where I found 3 large Koi fish. There were many orchids, the one I chose is the boat orchid (cymbidium). The small white and blue and the lavender I did not take note of their names. After checking Veronica's post this week I was reminded that the lavender flower is a Lenten Rose. The small white and blue still don't know it's name.

Submitting this to Mosaic Monday at Lavender Cottage.
