How to Plant & Care for Lotus
Description
Nelumbo nucifera ‘Limited Quantity’ — bowl lotus, shipped as a dormant lotus tuber.
'Little White Dot' is an Exquisite of Bowl Lotus, bred to be grown in the smallest of bowls. The pure white color and simple elegant form will bring joy to those with extremely limited growing space. We suggest using the pot in-pot method to grow this lotus - see below.
At a glance
- Flower color: white
- Flower type: Few-Petal, less than 25 petals
- Plant height: Micro, 6"-10"
- Container: 6"-14" wide, 4"-10" deep
As a bowl lotus, this one settles at 2 to 12 inches of water over the crown once established — start a new tuber under 2 to 4 inches and raise the level as it pushes aerial leaves, with the growing tip left uncovered. Pot size, soil and the rest of the method are in the lotus planting instructions.
