Thanks Diane, Carol, and Sheri!
Here she is blooming yesterday. The picture doesn't do her justice - it's hard to get a picture while the flowers bob in the water, and my photo editing program quit on me. The photo makes her look a bit faded - she's much more vibrant than appears here.

I saw 4 more buds on the surface when I got home yesterday evening.

Thanks again Diane and Carol! The blooms last a couple of days, before they wind themselves down into the pot -
it's interesting to see the stems all wound around leaf stems when it does this.
Here is the pond today, on a beautiful day after yet another rainy day yesterday.
The plants are starting to grow out and look tropical once again.
