See Rad Michelle’s Big Ones Bursting Outta Their Cups!
« on: June 21, 2009, 10:15:05 AM »
Ooo that bad bad Rad Michelle sent me an Albert Greenberg so swollen with seven fat buds, so distended with more than a dozen 14” pads that its pendulous root ball wouldn’t even fit in the Dixie cup planned for my short season pond.   



Big Al started blooming the very next morning, after it was potted in a 2 g set inside a half barrel with an aquarium heater and all of the above set in the lily pond.  (More have opened since this picture.)





She also sent me an Attraction so chubby it may need to go to Jenny Craig (also bloomed the next day), a large Texas Dawn, and Parrots Feather and Water Lettuce as lagniappe.



Seriously, folks, don’t buy from Rad Michelle if you enjoy nursing a waterlily infant through the summer hoping to see a bloom before frost. I’m tellin’ you, she’s B-A-A-A-A-D.

Hey ThornyGardener,

Your water needs to be several inches deeper to keep that lily happy and healthy.

Cheers,

If you think that your question is dumb, imagine how totally stupid you will look if you don't ask it.

Thanks, Sean. My liner had a leak -- new one was installed yesterday. Water is now 2' deep.

You know, some people make $$ by overwintering trops for Northerers. Louis used to send his to someone in FL.

All I would ask for is for you to pay the postage both ways. :)
