First lotus available for mail order
Here at the nursery we have begun dividing and repotting our early varieties of Lotus. This is the ideal time to order them in the mail and we have started listing the first shooting varieties of lotus as in stock on the web site.
Over the coming month even more of our lotus will be made available. But some of our top varieties including new ones like Hunter Blaze are now already listed as ready to order!
Edible plants added
The edible plants section of the catalog has just been filled. Many of the entries are already listed as available.
This has also resulted in a number of gingers being added to the ginger section and a number of existing plants being added to the edible plants category.
The gingers are currently listed as unavailable but will probably be listed as in stock very soon, along with additional entries of ornamental gingers in upcoming weeks.
Miscellaneous Plants Added
Miscellaneous plants have been added to the online catalog in several categories, mostly filling out Bog Plants, Pond Plants and Native Plants.
Many of the entries are already listed as available and you can order them straight away.
There will be more plants added to these categories over time, we have merely completed a first wave of early and popular varieties.
Lotus Section Complete
We have just completed filling out our range of lotus in our online catalog. (Though we may yet add more at a later date).
Nearly our full range of lotus are now visible, and while not yet available for mail order it should not be long until they are (keep an eye out here for an announcement).
For now we will return to filling out more of our miscellaneous plants catalog, many of which will be available as they are added. Any completion of major new sections or activation of large groups as they become seasonally available will as usual be mentioned here in the news.
Upcoming Lotus Section
Recently we have been getting a lot of inquiries about our range of Lotus plants after lotus has been featured in a prominent gardening magazine.
Unfortunately right now the site is in the middle of being updated and our lotus section is still listed as empty.
Due to the surge in interest we will be pushing to update our lotus section sooner than we had planned, so keep an eye out here in the news.
For those wondering when Lotus will be available from us by mail order or retail,
Mail Order Lotus will be available approximately between late September and early December. Though it does vary a little based on seasonal conditions.
Retail Lotus will be available at our nursery from some time in November until some time in March. Though again, it does vary with seasonal conditions and we sometimes sell out of some stock in January/February.
We limit our mail order season for lotus due to the need to send them while they are growing and shooting for the best chance at successfully establishing them, and before they grow too large to mail.
Our range of lotus will be available to be viewed directly on this site as soon as possible, ideally within the next week or less, and certainly well before they are available for mail order.
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.
