Lotus mail orders have been discontinued for 2016 as the plants are now too advanced to bare root and post.
Lotus mail orders will be available again some time again next Spring.
Advanced potted lotus plants of almost all our varieties currently remain available for retail purchase at our nursery and will likely remain available until at least around March 2017.
Lotus plants for mail order are running out of stock and remaining varieties will soon be too large to send in the post this season.
Depending on demand and seasonal factors all remaining lotus will be listed as out of stock for mail order some time over the next several weeks. If you plan to mail order lotus this season you should place your orders while you still can.
However the end of lotus mail order season is also the beginning of the prime season to purchase advanced lotus plants at our nursery. Potted lotus at the nursery are already established and available for sale this season and will be until late summer/early autumn next year. They will likely begin flowering on site some time around December.
You can now stay at our bed and breakfast accommodation on site at Wallis Creek Watergarden.
For more information check out our accommodation page and contact us to place a booking.
Due to the long weekend mail orders will not be sent on Monday 3rd of October and will be held over to be sent on the next Monday instead.
We only send orders on Mondays and don’t send mail orders in shorter mailing weeks to ensure a maximum number of consecutive mailing days for your order to reach you as rapidly as possible.
Mail orders will resume as normal on Monday the 10th of October.
Most of our range of Lotus plants have now been made available for Spring mail orders.
Notably however for retail pick up customers it is not yet a great time of year to buy lotus on site at the nursery. The ideal season for bare rooted mail order lotus tends to precede the ideal season for purchasing potted lotus plants at the nursery.
We have made a selection of our plants available and in stock on the web site for early Spring mail orders.
For now available plants are limited primarily to most of our Temperate Water lily range, a selection of our miscellaneous plants and just the very earliest of our lotus varieties.
More lotus varieties, other plants and later tropical lilies will be made available on the site as the season progresses.
As usual orders will be sent out on Mondays for the best mailing times, and we will be sending out the first batch of mail orders on Monday August the 8th.
All mail orders are now closed for winter. Mail orders will resume some time around August or September for the early Spring season.
The last outstanding mail orders of the season will be sent out on our last mailing day Monday May 2nd.
Due to the upcoming winter dormancy period all water lilies, temperate and tropical are now listed as out of stock. (And lotus remain out of stock for the same reason).
Water lilies and lotus are still available as advanced potted plants at our nursery, and for the next month or so Tropical lilies at the nursery will still be flowering.
Mail orders for water lilies and lotus will commence again next season, starting with the early temperate water lilies some time in early Spring.
For now a small selection of miscellaneous plants remains available for mail order, but all mail orders will be made unavailable for our brief winter closing period soon.
Temperate water lillies are no longer available for mail order this season due to their uncoming Winter dormancy period.
Temperate water lillies will be available for mail order again some time in early Spring. They remain available for retail purchase as advanced potted plants at our nursery.
Tropical water lillies and various other water plants remain available for mail order for now, but only for a few more months before their own dormancy season.
Our lotus plants are no longer listed as in stock and available for mail order on the web site as plants have grown too large and the lotus mail order season for the year is now over.
Other plants are still available including tropical and temperate water lilies and will be for the rest of summer.
Lotus plants are still available as advanced flowering plants sold retail directly from our nursery and will be through the rest of summer.
