Planting and Growing Tips

Plant the lotus rhizome horizontally in a wide, sturdy aquatic container filled with heavy, nutrient-rich loam. Keep the growing tip protected from damage and begin with shallow water over the planted soil. Increase water depth gradually as the plant develops.

Provide a sunny location and sufficient space for its broad leaves and rhizomes. Mature lotus plants can become quite large, so choose a container or pond appropriate for the variety.

Important: Nelumbo nucifera is not suitable for growing entirely underwater like Java Fern or Anubias. It is best suited to ponds, outdoor tubs and water gardens where leaves can emerge above the surface.
