Martian Lotus 15

The Martian lotus flower is a beautiful and peaceful sight. The flower is white with red streaks running through it. The petals are delicate and soft. The center of the flower is a deep red, almost purple color. The stamen in the center of the flower are long and thin, reaching out to the petals. The Martian lotus flower grows in shallow lakes on Mars. The lakes are usually near the equator, where it is warmest on Mars. At sunset, the sky turns a beautiful orange color. The sunsets on Mars are some of the most beautiful in the solar system. The Martian lotus flower closes up at night and opens back up in the morning when the sun rises.
