Following Cheryl's Pond Plant Order
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
| | Texas Dawn (Left) This hardy water lily was ordered and shipped bare root. It arrived in great shape with 1 full bloom and 2 buds almost ready to bloom. (You can see the full bloom at the top of the pictures above and below - I wish it was a better shot!) It only had a couple of dead leaves to remove. See the tuber better below. |
|
Texas Dawn Tuber (Right) As you can see this a large tuber. *Please note* Bare Root tuber sizes vary depending on the size of the water lily. Smaller varieties have smaller, etc. |
|
| Attraction (Left) This hardy water lily was ordered and shipped as bare root. It arrived looking very healthy with only a couple of dead leaves to remove. This one didn't have any blooms or buds yet - but it will soon enough! I'm not sure you can see, but the tuber (in and under her hand) is a really good size! |
Indiana (Right) This dwarf hardy water lily was ordered and shipped as a 6" pod. This is a photo of her preparing to plant it. It was quite healthy and had a couple of buds already - but still - she was a little disappointed at first because she thought it looked quite scrawny compared to the other lilies. *Please note* Smaller varieties are, well, smaller! Don't dispair. They do well - below see the photos of this water lily the very next day. |
| Indiana - Next Day (Right & Below) These are photos of that same Indiana water lily the very next day (June 10, 2006). | You can also see some of the fairy moss she ordered floating in the pond. |
|
| Panama Pacific (Left) This Tropical day blooming Water Lily was ordered and shipped as a 6inch pod. In this photo it is still in the pot it came in. Like the other lilies, it arrived healthy as can be. Cheryl was particulary amazed with the brilliant flower already in full bloom when it came out of the wrapping. It really is quite stunning! |
