Nelumbo nucifera
Flower ALERT!!!
Bold Protector blooms all summer long!
The large single red flower is held high above glossy green leaves. The wide and perfectly balanced petals can be striated with lines of color and the color stays true as the flower ages. The seed pods are often red and can be up to 5" wide and produce fertile seed. Bold Protector has a classic shape and will be a star attraction in either a large pot or in your pond. Occasionally produces striped flowers!
'Bold Protector,' a spectacular hybrid from Ten Mile Creek Nursery, will grow about 3.5' tall in a 20" diameter pot.
Flower Color: Red
Plant Height: Medium/Large, 24'-50"
Flower Type: Single or Few Petal, less than 20 petals
Pot Size: 18" and wider, 10"-18" deep
HOW TO FERTILIZE LOTUS
For conventional fertilizer (tablets or loose prills) which releases quickly when water is added:
Wait until the lotus plant has several floating leaves or begins to put up aerial leaves before adding fertilizer.
Choose a good fertilizer such as Waterlily World Tablets, Pondtabbs or Landon's Aquatic Fertilizer and follow the instructions carefully. The amount of fertilizer to use is usually based on the size of the pot and the amount of soil in the pot. For example, most of the small tablets are added at a ratio of 1-2 tablets per gallon of soil in the pot. Once the lotus has started to grow vigorously tablets can be added every 2-3 weeks. Stop fertilizing in late summer to allow the lotus to use up all the fertilizer in the pot before going dormant. This encourages the lotus to form better rhizomes.
For SLOW-RELEASE FERTILIZER like Nutricote 14-4-14, 100 day fertilizer:
*follow amount directions on package. Place fertilizer around the bottom of the pot then add soil. Plant rhizome in the soil at the top of soil layer and let it grow down to find fertilizer. We use slow-release fertilizer but begin adding extra Pondtabbs after 3 months when growth gets vigorous and we continue adding extra fertilizer until late summer.
Do NOT use 360 day fertilizer because it will release fertilizer for too long and the lotus will not form as many rhizomes when it goes dormant.

Love the style but it doesn’t hold shape
Size: One Size, Color: Vanilla
I am big fan of the Lucky Brand. This tote disappointed simply because it was floppy. So if you set it down it just collapses instead of holding shape. So it wasn’t what I was looking for in a tote. I was really excited about this bag because I love the style and color. But I ended up returning it.

WOW!! Pics do not do it justice!
Color: Classic, Size: Small
I was ready to be disappointed with this bag because of the low price and the meh pics BUT NO! This is a lovely bag.
*the feel is indescribably soft and pleasant.
*the quality is apparent in the beautiful lining as well as the exterior. It is beautifully sewn and designed.
*the thought that went into the design is remarkable. Each pocket is conveniently placed and deep enough to be secure. No wasted space as in, there are additional deep pockets on the outside for anything but what comes to mind is a water bottle that won’t go sideways and spill or leak or topple out. It is comfortable, spacious, smart, and pleasing to touch and hold.
*the bottom zipper is discreet and opens up to expand the volume of the bag should you need it. The lining easily accommodates the adjustment.
I chose the small size which is perfectly adequate for my needs. I will use for short trips as it will accommodate laptop, dog treats, my snacks and hydration, book, wallet, phone and more of course. I value this much much higher than the price I paid.
None of the pics do it justice. You have to have it in your hands to believe. I highly recommend. I’m fighting that impulse to get a back up bc this is def my new favorite.

The Best Tote Bag EVER
Color: Khaki, Size: Small
It's perfect for work and everyday use! It's durable and lightweight. It's expandable at the bottom and the zippers work well. I bought it in size small in the light khaki color... Perfect for spring! It's very organized with pockets on the inside and a place for your iPad. I highly recommend it! I'm going to buy it as a gift for my daughters. It looks like the expensive bags, but at $25 it's a steal! I may get one in another color for the fall.

This is a good size bag, light with lots of compartments on the inside and outside of the bag. Fit my laptop perfectly with room for much more inside.

Best diaper/traveling bag!!
Color: Desert, Size: Large
Absolutely LOVE this bag!! The fabric of the bag was better than I even expected. It’s super soft, comfortable, easy to wipe down, has plenty of storage, sturdy even without stuffing it full, and is the perfect bag! It feels nice and thick without it being heavy. The zipper is also very durable and isn’t cheap feeling compared to other brands. I will definitely be ordering more in the future even to use for just traveling. I switched from a book bag diaper bag style to this bag and I feel like it holds even more! Plus, I love that you can expand this bag!! You won’t regret buying this one!!
