Over the past 5 years, Bergen Water Gardens has introduced hundreds of new lotus varieties to the US marketplace. At our nursery in New York, we grow over 400 varieties of Chinese lotus in what we call Lotus Paradise. After a slow start to the 2019 season, our lotus are now at their prime and will be for the next month or longer. Join us the weekend of August 2 to the 4th and not only see our magnificent lotus but sample an array of lotus treats, plus Lotus Pizza on Saturday and Sunday!
We have just completed our 55th 5′ x 5′ pond, to showcase our beautiful lotus!
We are opening early at 8:00 am, so there is ample time to view the single petal lotus, as they tend to close by 1:00 PM.
Larry Nau will have a continuous slide show on the Pole Barn porch of his recent trip to China in July 2019.

Do you offer wholesale accounts? I own a small business called Ohio Koi LTD in Central Ohio and I would be interested in buying for resale. Please let me know! Thanks
