Product Overview
Nelumbo 'Super' - Pink Changeable Hardy Water Lotus
Super lives up to its name -- a fantastic blooming multi-petal that opens pink, then pink and white, and finishes solid white. Great form, and a stack of petals that tempts us to classify it as a thousand-petal type, falling just a little short. Super has so many petals that sometimes its fat buds get a little stuck opening, and benefit from a gentle tap to spring open. Starts blooming early in the season, and just keeps blooming!
