Due to an overwhelming response I decided to purchase a plant from the ONLY place I know that carries this plant and I got one of the last ones they had. This auction is for a LIVE well rooted plant that is pictured in the third pic and will be sent bare root.
I mostly grow it for its lovely silvery-green needle like foliage. It is a wonderful accent plant for texture and color. Do not expect flowers all season as explained below.
One of the most dramatic plants for spilling over the sides of containers, lotus bears soft, silvery foliage and bold, lobster-clawlike flowers in shades of orange, red, and yellow. Many lotus varieties bloom best in spring or fall as cool nighttime temperatures encourage blooms. In warm-winter areas, lotus is a striking evergreen perennial groundcover. It grows best in full sun with well-drained soil. I over winter my plant after growing it outside all summer.
