Description
Product Details

Lotus grow vertically, so the surface area they cover will correspond to the size of the planting container. If planted in a mud bottom pond, they may become invasive.

Lotus are as hardy as water lilies, and even more vigorous. What this variety needs in order to prosper is sunlight, a sufficient volume of earth in which to grow, nitrogen-rich fertiliser, and a planting depth that does not exceed 10-20cm. Follow planting instructions carefully, lotus rhizomes are fragile.

This lotus may be planted in a mini pond, a bowl or a decorative pot 10-20L in volume. After 2-3 years they must be divided and replanted in those containers.
