Lotus

Nelumbo or Lotus plants are entirely different to waterlillies.

They grow large, full round leaves on tall stems often well out of the water.

In mid summer they produce large blooms held above the leaves.

Buds, blooms, seed pods and foliage make lotus an extremely decorative addition to the watergarden.

Due to the speedy growth rate and large size of lotus combined with their fragility during dormancy they can only be sent in mail order for a brief period between September to early December. After this they are too large to send in the mail but can still be purchased as potted plants at our nursery for regular retail prices in 45cm flower buckets throughout summer.

NOTICE

Our lotus is now out of stock for mail order this season as the plants are in winter dormancy.

Mail order lotus will be available again some time around next September along with potted Lotus on site at the nursery.
