| No sweat.......curious to see what they look like. I just got a lotus seed to "sprout" and it is the most amazing thing to watch....it came out of the seed in 2 days....it is quite cool to observe. Last edited by GARDEN GUY; 09-19-2008 at 01:39 PM. |

| Uni Cool......I would not have guessed they were Hosta..... Ang Yes they are pond plants....similar to waterlily's but different....this variety is zone 5 hardy. The flowers are stunning......I can hardly wait till next Spring to put it in the pond. Thanks to both of you Gary |
