How to Plant & Care for Lotus
Description
Nelumbo nucifera — bowl lotus, shipped as a dormant lotus tuber.
Like tiny pink tulips, this miniature lotus will be perfect on your patio or the top shelf in your pond. The buds are extra long and thin - very different! The ability to produce a lot of flowers in a very small pot is one of the best characteristics of this classic micro lotus. Perfect on a balcony!
At a glance
- Flower color: Changeable, Pink
- Flower type: Single or Few Petals, less than 20 petals
- Plant height: Exquisite of Bowl Lotus, 6”-12” tall

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.
