Pond Chat / Overwintering Lotus questions
« on: October 12, 2009, 12:48:21 PM »
here in zone 5 we have experienced a killing frost and all our terrestrial annuals have died. Our lotus has turned brown and no longer is sending up anything green. My container is on the patio and WAY too big to move. I don't have anywhere to put it anyway.
I was wondering if I could carefully dig up the tubers in the big container and place them in a smaller container that I could then sink in the pond so that they don't freeze. Is this possible and would they survive? Thank you for any help
