Hi vm and crazy4,
I just read your posts!! wow, I tried to save what I thought was a seed pod from one of my pond lilis, but when it dried out, I did not see seeds? I have grown some lotus from seeds tho :) They grow so fast! I was loosing my pond due to evaporation, I had less than 1/8 of of my pond and water, but thank goodness for all the snow and rain we have had! I just looked at it yesterday, and WOW, it's up to the top now :) I had to take almost all my pond lilies and put the in the crawl space in tubs for winter. I have not been able to see if they are still alive. There are only maybe 4 pond lilies that were sunk into the pond last fall. I have some lotus seeds too from trades, and of all things I went to an estate sale, and found a handmade screen and lotus pods inside a box!! The owner of the house was a dr, and had lots of hobbies! The good news is that when I found the box w/ the goodies in it, no one knew what they were?? Just junk the auctioneer said, so he gave the box and screen and pods for FREE !! YEA
