Does ANYONE know where to find Lotus?

Where can i get Lotus Blossoms??? I need a bouquet of them for my wedding.


Ive searched up and down the internet, every flower shop in town and the 1800 Flowers numbers. Even plant nurseries and I still cant find them! Any suggestions?

Does ANYONE know where to find Lotus?
My backyard.....Girl truth be told, its going to be hard to find it from a flower shop. Your best bet is to find them fresh from a local site that plants them, they live best in muddy waters.
Reply:The Lotus is my favorite plant, and when my potted ones didn't bloom I looked for some cut ones too. I found none. Unfortunately, they don't last long if picked, so you must get them fresh. If you have any friends with some plants that might be willing to donate some flowers, then that might work. Good luck...
Reply:Lotus is a water plant; try www.pondplants.com
Reply:i hate to dissappoint you dear,but you may not be able to find them unless you find a country pond and go pick them yourself.they do not last once picked,so they are not great for arrangements etc... even though they are beautiful.i have a water garden in my yard and have a lotus growing there.i have tried unsucessfully many times to use them in flower arrangements here at home(which i have done for years).congrats on your wedding and good luck on findingt the flowers!
Reply:sorry, i just searched too, no can do. MUST you have them specifically? i'd start thinking about other kinds...
