I live in Florida, and would like to try growing the Victoria waterlilies in our large pond. We’ve seen them at Bok Tower Gardens. Will the book be available on Amazon? If not, I will order directly from the Garden Shop. I enjoyed your last book very much. I bought it when I was visiting my folks in PA. Thanks again!

Victoria-adventure.org is a great resource in becoming familiar with Victoria. they were gracious enough to send me seeds. with the knotts guidance the longwood f1 hybrid is easy to raise. amazonica was abit slower, yet in zone 7 there were plenty of blooms, seeds would always get frosted out. i never dappled with cruziana this far north, putting the effort into growing these giants from seed leads you to the longwood f1 lineage for its superior robust attributes of both parents. seeing what the knotts have accomplished with the backcrosses of longwood into the parent species helps us to understand what mankind could bring to fruition with this great genera that is victoria. yours truly taylor~
