Water Gardening: Begging for water lily seeds!, 1 by vanillaman

Yes, I am humbly begging for some water lily seeds. I know at this time of the year, many people have flowers which have produced seeds and should have bent over and are hiding under the leaves or maybe on the bottom of the pond. I will take anything whatsover, but mostly tropicals and miniatures because of my location and pond size. I purchased a pkg. of mixed tropical water lilies from Chiltern Seeds in England but only 2 have germinated so far. I might just being impatient, but I would like to try some more.

Now for what I have to trade in return, lol! I have a Trade List here, but there aren't any water plants on my list yet. I have to update it and will be adding seeds of "tropicals", both white and blue ones. I have a few water hyacinths, but they are new and haven't flowered yet. I should have seeds after they flower. I'll try to find a photo or 2 of the white and blue water lilies I have seeds of and add them here. Please note, the flowers are large and held well above the foliage. They spread a lot too, so are definitely not suitable for a small water garden!

Thanks so much to any kind, generous, water lilie lovers who like to share, lol!

Here is the blue one!

Forgot to mention, I'd kill for lotus seeds too!
