Wanted: Topical Water Lilies
« on: April 10, 2008, 06:09:34 PM »
I don't have any and would love to start.  If anyone could help me out in this department, I would appreciate it greatly.  I don't mind the color, just any will do.  I'm willing to pay, clean your house, or even walk your dog  :D.  Let me know.  Thanks.

Depending on how fast our weather starts to warm up to get my extras growing, I will probably start selling my extra tropicals in about a month.  Prices range from $5 to about $15 depending on which lily it is.

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)

Hi, I expect to have tropical and hardy lilies for sale around the end of May, maybe earlier, depending on the weather.

I have only a handful now but like Kat I will have a lot in about a month.
Let me know what color or variety you are looking for and I can tell you if I have them to blooming size now.
I sell my blooming size lilies for $15 to $30 depending on how hard they are to propagate and how many I have.

By the way, Kat and Frank (Matherfish) are great to do business with.

Thanks Kat, Frank, and Tim.  Sounds good.  I guess many people are still waiting for their spring.

I have the following up to blooming size. They have about a 1 foot spread on their pads right now for scale in the photos.

I have a small tuber of an unknown blue I'd be willing to send for postage.  It used to have a name, years ago the tags were lost!

Brenda, that is very kind of you.  I'll take you up on that in a heart beat. 

Tim, those are all wonderful and thank you.

Hey Alfonso,

Your tuber is on it's way.  It's small but will grow!  Hope it's warm enough to plant!


Enjoy, Brenda

I received the notice from the usps.  I can't wait. @O@  It's plenty warm here.  I'm sure it will do fine.  Thank you.
