❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How long does it take for lotus to flower from seed?
Lotus grown from seed usually take 1–2 years to bloom, depending on climate and care. In warm zones with ideal conditions, blooms may appear in the first year.

Do lotus flowers come back every year?
Yes, lotus is a hardy perennial in many climates. As long as the tuber survives the winter (protected from freezing), it will regrow in spring.

Absolutely. Lotus thrives in wide, shallow containers with at least 6–8 inches of soil and 2–4 inches of water above the soil surface.

What kind of soil should I use?

Is special fertilizer needed?
Use a slow-release fertilizer specifically designed for aquatic plants. Begin fertilizing once the plant has a few aerial leaves.
