Re: Lotus qstn

Thanks Ceres, it could be a lot of things, I guess. They saw this combination in a magazine somewhere and wrote down the plants in it, which included Lotus nelumbo, as if nelumbo were a species of Lotus. I have since found that Nelumbo is a genus of lotus type flowers - as I understand it. RHS lists only 2 species. I'll continue looking around as so far the only website selling Nelumbo wanted $45 a piece for them and we are not paying that if they are just throwing them out at the end of the season.

I just needed the correct name to know what to shop for.


Kitty, could it be lotus berthelotii which would go with the Agastache but
not sure how the Helichrysum might look with it.
