Call me stupid ... I never heard of Kindergarten Cop.
We are talking past each other - er something. I'm of the 30s and 40s generation. Pre TV almost Pre Talkies ;-) Time Out? I recall my grandchildren getting TimeOuts for being naughty. That's bad in my lingo. Nedra http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Pines/4836 http://community.webshots.com/user/nedra118 "Gareee©" wrote in message ... "Nedra" wrote in message k.net... Okay, Gareee.

The reference is from that movie. It was a joke.

Sharing Lotus Tubors
You can do them whenever they go dormant, is my understanding.
Here in Zone 7 I wait for a nice sunny day in late Feb, early March and up end the pots. Get them mailed out, or sold, soon after. I held the tubers in a bucket for a few days and potted most up. K30 was a tad busy and didn't get over to get hers right away, so I left hers and some for my sister in the bucket. Don't know if some cold nights got to them or what, they looked viable, but neither hers or my sister's grew..... Course then there is the big tuber I put back to grow in the container they all came from, and it's not doing a darn thing, all the others I potted up to sell, grew and were sold. The tuber isn't mushy either, but maybe it takes them a long time to rot? Water temp is in the 80's and has been for couple weeks. The 2nd Lotus container I didn't touch this year is growing great guns and has 4-6 buds up. Very confusing plant for me. ~ jan Thanks. It appears my best plan may be to leave them until April. And I had all kinds of cool plans for a lotus garden this year. Dern. BV. (Do you know where your water quality is?) |

My lotus pond is on its 3rd or 4th year with No division. The pond is
crammed full blossoms & buds and the leaves are gigantic. Wonder if its some sort of ole wives tale that they should be divided - at least every other year? Jan's experience and mine seem to indicate that they do best if left alone.

BV,
If you have any extras, I would love to have some Lotus!

I want to prepare to split and share some of my tubors, as I am running out of room, and I don't know if I will get the lotus garden in this year. What is the best time/method to do so? I was thinking in the fall...pull them out, cut back the roots, stems, etc. Then what... Put them in a bin full of pond water in the house for the winter? Let them dry? BV. |
