Frank how tall is this one? Wann Shou Hing (bowl)- $20
and are bowl lotus hardy in zone 7a?

Lawanna

matherfish · « **Reply #11 on:** March 15, 2008, 12:23:10 PM »

Lawanna, the plant grows to about 20-24 inches tall. I bring my lotus into the greenhouse for the winter (I am in zone 6), but I have a friend who is in zone 7 and she moves hers to the bottom of her pond and they do fine.
I will make a special offer this week. Buy the first lotus at regular price, get a second lotus (same or less cost of first lotus)at half the regular price. This way two lotus that would cost $40 will only cost $30. Shipping is the same as it was. ($7.50 for first, $5 for second). Anyone seeing this post is eligible for this offer, but offer will end on March 23.

You're killing me Frank!!!!!

And I do not know if I can grow and keep lotus alive. I've only ever killed them

Bonnie-I got the Perry's sunset...that color just popped out at me...Now can't wait till it blooms

...but, of course I still several I really want-but they will have to wait till next year....Fred and Ginger get a new pond this year so my funds are on reserve.....

miguynmkoi · « **Reply #24 on:** March 25, 2008, 12:42:58 AM »

I ordered: 2 - 1000 Petals
1 - Sene Kouren (bowl)
1 - Patricia Garrett

They all arrived quickly but unfortunately the 1000 Petals got beaten up by the delivery

. Frank quickly replaced the broken tubers when I told him about the delivery damage.

All the lotus tubers I ordered look very strong, healthy, and have many growing tips. The Patricia Garrett even came with a grown leaf pad still going strong! I'm growing lotus

Thank you so much Frank!
