Mrs. Ramsay Rules the Roost Lotus (Bare Root)

Nelumbo nucifera

“To dominate; to be in charge”

Looking for a really BIG lotus? This lotus does indeed “rule the roost’ here in the garden, flying high above gorgeous green leaves and unfurling its petals in the morning sun. Mrs. Ramsay Rules the Roost, a classic bi-color flower, is elegant as it flutters in the breeze. Wide white petals with fuchsia tips give way to a large seed pod perfect for floral arrangements and wreaths. Flowers can be over 12″ wide! This lotus is the definition of a ‘Sacred Lotus”!
