Wave upon wave, the lotus flowers glow in red; layer upon layer, their countless petals amount to a thousand. Recently, the musella lasiocarpa in full bloom at the Yuquan Temple is all the more enchanting as delicate lotus flowers dotted among the lotus leaves. With two pistils standing side by side, the musella lasiocarpa has up to 3000 petals, and the flowering time lasts for nearly 3 months.
