What is a (bowl lotus )

[matherfish]

Bowl lotuses are smaller, growing to only 2-3 feet tall, and their tubers do not get as big. They can be grown in smaller pots, also, needing only a 16-18 inch diameter pot instead of a 24-30 inch one.

Frank,
Just wanted to let you know that they arrived safely.  I accidentally broke 2 growing tips off of the little golden phoenix while trying to not break the tips..go figure...I think there is a third, so hopefully it will still do okay.  Is the growing tip the pale yellow part that sprouts and the leaf grows out of the growing tip?  I have the one leaf coming out of what I think is the third growing tip...

[matherfish]

Hi. The growing tip actually comes from next to the leaf stem. Usually whereever the leaf stem forms, a new growing tip will grow. The main growing tip grows from the end of the tuber. You probably still have a grwoing tip and it should still survive. If you want, you can  place the tuber in a buket of water for a few days and see if it starts growing, then plant it.
Happy ponding!

Where do you find your member ID?

Where do you find your member ID?

I think Frank means your American Ponders' nickname when he refers to "member ID"

[matherfish]

I do mean your A.P. nickname, or whatever you go by on A.P.    I have had people on forums send me an email or pay through Paypal with a completely different name than what they go by on A.P. (or whatever forum they belong to) and I have no way to make the connection. I call your name that you use on a forum your ID because that is what those on the forum know you by.  For an example, if someone uses the name "water dunks" on the forum asks me about buying several plants on an IM, or even an email, and I respond with a price, I have a record of the price and plants. However, I deal with lots of people on various forums (as do several others on this forum) and if my Paypal account shows I recieved a payment from "John Doe" with no mention of which plants they are paying for, I do not always know that "water dunks" and "John Doe" are the same person. I then have to go through all IMs and emails trying to associate who paid and for what plants. It can get confusing. I hope that I have explained why this ID (identification) is important. I do not know if others run into this problem, but I have, and I do not want to send someone the wrong plants.
Thanks everyone for your help and understanding.
