I have a tiger lotus bulb that I'm desperately trying to get to sprout, they are one of my favorites
Tiger lotus are really cool like that. They also grow very quickly.
after they are established they are incredibly hardy plants and will reproduce by growing more offshoots of bulbs to the side of it over time.
Just gotta say how much I love Tiger Lotus. What an incredibly hardy, versatile and easy to grow plant! I have 3 in my 40g and they all have a unique style. I'm about 9 months in to keeping planted tanks and lotus has been the easiest to care for from day one.
A tiger lotus would give that same pop or red without the risks! Forgot about that plant. And I personally think it would look amazing in that setup!

I'm in SLC and have had weirdly mixed results with seeding California poppies. Some of them do seem to come up, but never when I expect them to? Like I swear I've had some wait a full 6 months before germinative.
I live in MI and direct seed these guy last year, took them awhile to start but once they bloom they continue till almost everything already die to the ground and still blooming, they just so resilient and beautiful.
I live in CO, and I put out about $20 of packets worth of these on my hellstrip and absolutely 0 came up. Honestly I'm a little disappointed
Gotta love the California poppies
Those are stunning California poppies WOW
