The lily blooms are an infrequent occurrence ~ my guessing is it's due to not enough sun/sunlight due to the pond's sheltered position.

Early morning ~ white petal water lily, a night bloomer that grows on a long stem. 2nd and last day showing.  Grown in a small fish pond in the backyard of our home, near Innisfail, Tropical Far North Queensland, Australia.  

* Extra note
From my nature observations to date since photographing this bloom last April, these water lily plants must flower only once a year.
