Lotus flowers
Lotus flowers are aquatic plants that emerge from the water and give an oriental look to your pond.
The vegetation of lotuses is extraordinary, in fact the leaves emerge from the water from 50 to 150 cm depending on their size. The flowers emerge even more than the leaves.
Lotus flowers are hardy (i.e. frost-resistant) plants. They can be grown in a pond or in a tub in the garden or on the terrace!
Lotuses require shallower water than water lilies and need full sun for at least 8 hours per day for good vegetation and flowering.
The blooming period for lotus flowers is roughly from June to September. The flowers remain open 3 days, but several flowers can open at the same time!
Lotus flowers must be planted in tubs without holes, not even at the bottom. Lotus rhizomes are very invasive, so if they come out of the basket they will invade your whole pond!
Lotus rhizomes are on sale from March 1st to the beginning of June, as their growth is not guaranteed during other times of the year.
Additionally, to ensure the growth of lotus flowers, it is necessary to plant them in direct full sunlight for at least 8 hours during the central hours of the day.
