I just finished reading ALL of the posts in the Aquatic Plants Forum (all 44 pages of it) and I have pages and pages of new ideas for plants in the spring. One question that I haven't found an answer to though is - did anyone ever have any success with the Lotus seeds that they got from Hobby Lobby (or Michael's)? I read that several of you had tried them or were going to try them but I never really got a feel for how it worked out in the long run. I am in Zone 5b and I would like to give Lotus a try. I appreciate any advice you may have - thank you.
