Anyone grown any of this species from seed? Really beautiful plant. I was given three seeds of a Lotus plant, not sure what colour flower. Did a bit of reading, hopefully the will germinate.

i'm not a big internet shopper, but i ordered myselfe a nelumbo (lotus) plant online. i'm stoked about it, but i have never grown nelumbo before, so maybe we can discuss nelumbo and nymphaea cultivation a bit. i've grown nymphaea in large containers before, but i had removed the plants in question, from a creek bed and the plants carried an enormous ammount of "soil and natural gunk" with them, which obviously kept them happy and well nurtured. the website recommands containers at least 1.5m wide, and to use good garden soil as a medium. i might go down the local creek and check out the local blue lilly population, and take some of that gunk from around there roots home with me, so i can start already a good lilly pond soup, whilst i wait for my beauty to arrive.
