Waterlilies On line
Last year someone posted a great site for waterlilies
online. The variety and prices were great and I didn't bookmark the site - Anyone Remember?? -- Bonnie NJ http://home.earthlink.net/~maebe43/ |

Here's something to consider when buying plants...
This problem may be rare - I sure hope it is. I ordered my first water lilies (and some duckweed) last year from a supplier in Colorado. I had just finished the pond and it was real late in the season so I was anxious to get them. They didn't show up when expected. Turns out they were caught up in Ag inspection. They sat in a warehouse for over a week. One water lily died along with all of the duckweed. It didn't do the remaining 6 lilies any good for sure. This was not the suppliers fault. They were nice about it. For replacement I opted for them to make it up in water lily fertilizer to avoid the Ag inspection risk again. Anyway - just something to consider. If you have a choice between a supplier in your own state and one out-of-state, if all else is equal you might want to go with the one in-state. Maybe this was a freak occurance or maybe it was due to increased inspections due to the West Nile Virus? Steve J. Noll | Ventura California (zone 10) | Glass Block Pond http://www.kissingfrogs.tv |

Noll | Ventura California (zone 10) | Glass Block Pond http://www.kissingfrogs.tv Thanks for the warning, I have ordered many plants online. I think last year it was anthrax scare that caused many delays. The price difference between local and online make risk worthwhile if I can order early enough. -- Bonnie NJ http://home.earthlink.net/~maebe43/ |
