Mail Orders Now Open For Spring

We have re-opened mail orders for our early Spring plants. The first orders will be sent out on Monday the 12th of August and mail orders will proceed to go out on the Monday after payment confirmation each week after that.

Our early spring range includes most of our Temperate Waterlilies and a variety of miscellaneous water plants and bog plants, these include some of our hardiest and longest season water lilies and water plants.

We have added a new section for “Package Deals”. Mailing costs have increased this year and the Package Deals section is designed to provide small packages of plants that customers making smaller orders might like to purchase with a discounted mailing cost included in the package instead of applying our flat mailing fee after selecting custom plants from the site. If you are just ordering one or two lilies you can save a little money on postage by ordering a package deal option, and if you just want a nice selection of quality in seasonĀ  plants for a water bowl or small pond you can choose to leave the selection of plants to us.

Mail orders closing for Winter

It is currently the time of year that we are deactivating most of our mail order plants, especially all lilies and lotus, for the winter season during which they are dormant and unlikely to survive travel in the post.

Some plants like water irises and various native water plants are winter hardy and will remain available for purchase.

The deactivated plants will become available again as they become ready, starting with temperate lilies and early water plants in Spring.

Tropical Water Lily orders disabled for Winter

Unfortunately it is now the end of the Water Lily mail order season, the remaining tropical water lilies have been turned off for online mail order as it is no longer a suitable time to transplant them.

Temperate water lilies will be available again some time in early Spring, and tropical lilies some time in late Spring/early Summer. Availability updates will appear here in the site news.

Meanwhile why not check out our Louisiana Water Iris sale.

Temperate Water Lily Mail Orders ended for Winter

Temperate water lilies are now unavailable for mail order on our web site as they will soon be going into winter dormancy and it is no longer particularly suitable to repot and divide them.

Temperate water lilies will continue to be available retail at our nursery all year.

Tropical water lilies will continue to be available on our web site for about another month before they are made unavailable for their later winter dormancy period.

Temperate water lilies will be made available for mail order again on our web site some time in early Spring.

Temperate Water Lilies Available, Louisiana Iris Catalogued

The earliest of our temperate water lilies have now been listed as in stock and available for sale in our store!

A selection of some of the newly available stock is currently being temporarily shown in our featured products sliders, but there are others in the temperate lilies section of the site.

Louisiana Iris have now been cataloged, and some may shortly be made available, though we do not normally recommend planting them at this time of year as you might miss or delay flowering.

The next category to be filled out will be our various miscellaneous water plants many of which will be early season plants and will be listed as available and in stock the moment they go up.

So keep an eye out here on our news page for more announcements regarding additions to our catalog and stock availability.

Temperate Lilies Cataloged

Our temperate water lilies section in our online catalog has been populated with our range of temperate/hardy water lily varieties.

Plants are not currently available as it is still the winter dormancy period. But temperate lilies will be among the first to be listed as in stock some time through late August or in September. Check here for news.

Among the items added to the temperate lilies section are some varieties new to our online catalog. In particular Mangkala Ubol and Moorei are both excellent new varieites notable for their incredibly long growing and flowering seasons.
