| Hi
I see there are several forums here for pond and bog gardening, so I hope I found the right one. This one seemed to have a lot on plants. I'm in love with the blue lotus, Nelumbo nucifera, and also the blue lily Nymphaea (not sure of the sp.) I want to find the most fragrant ones to grow here in Miami, but am having trouble finding local nurseries that carry them. There may be many nurseries, but I can't just google them, it seems. Can anyone help? TIA |

| Check with you local extension office and make sure that they are legal to grow in your state, William Trickers has many tropical lotus and lilies. www.tricker.com I buy from them regularly because they have good stuff and great service. |

| Hi Aquawise - I did check with the co-op ext guy, and he gave me one lead, but the selection is limited, very limited. I'm also befuddled that so many sites I googled don't contain the botanical names. I've never seen so much disregard for a type of plant name before. Hightider - is there a link? |

| I think it is because most people do not know them by a botanical name. Or even know they have one. LOL to most its just Lotus or Lily. Did you check out Trickers? I know they have the blue ones. |
