That King of Siam is awesome looking, enjoy that one. I don't know anything about plants, what do those cost?

Hi Airxsteel,

Tropical waterlilies fetch $16-$30 (looking at nursery prices)

On ebay they may fetch $5-$15

Some varieties like King of Siam may be hard to find, along with Albert Greenberg, some varieties sell out more than others.

Hi Fishin,
Last weeks heat wave knocked a few things (including me) side ways, if whoever is on climate control would kindly switch it from 100f to more normal 80's stuff I might be able to get my tubers sorted out. As it is I'm trying to plant them out after dark :::doh:::

Now Blessed,
Don't you go telling folk my arm can be twisted to sell a tuber now and then :) I shall have to start hiding the good stuff!

Regards, andy

yes, Andy got back with me, I fully understand that things come up and you get busy, he contacted me back and Things are back on track. And yes I would love to give away about 20 degrees right now, 30 would even bet better!

Am lifting tubers for storing and indoor cultivation, this month.

Ummm would be interested to trade for Antares, named night bloom tropical waterlilies, Canna, Japanese iris.

Trades for un named stuff considered if there is a good photo of plant in bloom. Un named trades are likely to be similar to varieties already here

Pond plants interesting to photograph preferred :::sigh:::.

No rush, all Winter to ponder on it!

Hmmm, Bagged and tagged so far, Tubers (some might call them corms) of the following, these are the tough resilient part of the tropcal waterlily from which new plants grow to flowering size when water temperatures are Summery 70°f-95°f.

Tubers store reliable damp or wet, in the 45°f-55°f range. Dispatched weather permitting, in the Winter months.
