Don’t you just love it when you score a great find you weren’t even actively looking for. I guess that is what makes garage saling so much fun! I was on my way to work on Saturday and saw a sign for a garage sale. I couldn’t just not stop, so stop I did. I found these wonderful large black tubs that will be absolutely perfect for my lotus. When I bought my lotus from Texas Water Lilies the directions stated to use a pot without holes. I did not have such a pot, so I used what I had, a 7 gal. pot with holes. I have since learned there is a reason they tell you to use a pot without holes. I keep fighting with my lotus to keep it from taking over the end of the pond where it is. I may be wrong but I think it has stopped blooming because it is using it’s energy to take over and not bloom.I have been wondering where in the world I would find a large pot without holes. Well, I found my pot, 2 for $5, what a great find!! :)
