How to Plant & Care for Lotus
Description
Nelumbo nucifera — medium lotus, shipped as a dormant lotus tuber.
Cuiyun 13B. A well-known and well-loved lotus, this variety is also called 'Green Clouds'. Since there is another variety with the same English name we retain the Chinese name to avoid confusion. Cui Yun 13B has such beautiful shape and has a bright gold center for extra eye-appeal. It is a crazy good bloomer all summer long!! Truly--one of the heaviest bloomers we've ever grown! The flowers are a clean, crisp extra light yellow with a light touch of pink on the first day flower against dark green foliage. Most people would call this one white.
At a glance
- Flower color: White (Extra-light Yellow)
- Flower type: Multi-petal, more than 50 petals

As a medium lotus, this one settles at 6 to 18 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.
