How to Plant & Care for Lotus
Description
Nelumbo nucifera ‘Lu Hua Nong’ — dwarf lotus, shipped as a dormant lotus tuber.
'Dripping Dew' is as fresh and beautiful as the name makes it sound! A peach-shaped purple bud opens into a vibrant pink long-lasting flower! The flower averages 65 petals and is usually petaloid (not able to set seeds). It blooms often and the flower holds it shape well. The color softens each day but stays pink.
At a glance
- Flower color: Pink
- Flower type: Multi-petal, more than 50 petals
- Plant height: Small, 18"-24"
- Container: 12" and wider, 8"-14" deep
As a dwarf 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.
