HAVE: Way Too Many Lotuses!

lion
18 years ago

A large, chest-deep, plastic pond was left alone until it got shallow with so many tubers. Why waste 'em? I'd love more than 50 lbs of lotuses with maroon, variegated pads to go to dozens of good homes. These have two-tone flowers. Light pink with fuschia and dark yellow with light yellow. The roots have grown together but come really clean.

    How would one go about getting a tuber or 2? I have nothing on your trade list to trade.

    I'm not stuck up, and your personal page tells me that you have cool tastes, joejoe123. Do you have any neat, marginal or pond plants not in my 'haves' list? Thanks. ;-)

    Lion, I have two types of cacti, that are in the stapelid family. I am not sure which variety. One has a tiny bloom about the size of a nickel that is shaped like a star. I do not remember what the other bloom looks like. I also have a lasiocarpe "chinese sacred banana" pup I can trade. I have not seen a lotus with a variegated leaf. Are you interested in trading?

    Are these lotus or waterlilies. I have not seen any lotus with marone leaves. Do the leaves float or do they stand high above the water. Either way, I would like several. I can trade you any color hardy water lily.

    are u sure they are lotus??varigated maroon leaves...sounds more like a water lilly. if they are lotus then i would have like to trade for some. I have Gaint Taro, galanga, bodhi tree, buddhist golden lotus banana, and timber bamboo.

    Hello,
    What are you looking for in exchange for these? We installed a water garden last year and I would love to add flowers to it.

    Thanks
