We have a new thread up for a LILY GROUP BUY opportunity! http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1295595/

I hope to get a DAFFODIL / fall bub buy organized (same supplier) also... they'll have their fall availability list up in mid-Feb, and they said we can have free shipping when we order.

Also, I just got a note from Dusty at Texas Water Lilies. Turns out early Feb. is a *great* time to ship LOTUS (since they are dormant then), so if we hurry, we can get in a group order for wholesale prices on "BOWL" LOTUS, which can be grown in water garden pots just 2 or 3 gallons in size! We need to order 5 of a kind, and quickly, so Dmail me if you're interested and I'll send details. DG article on growing lotus (which are *hardy* for us!) is here: http://davesgarden.com/guides/articles/view/3338/ I would have these for delivery at the seed swap

Here's a link showing the color change in the bloom of 'Beautiful Dancer', a little lotus with classical form: http://tenmilecreeknursery.com/beautiful-dancer-p-297.html
