Lotus are seasonal plants and can only be planted
in the spring unlike waterlilies and other pond plants.
We will ship Lotus tubers with instructions about 2-3 weeks before your proper planting time to ensure a great season!
Seeds currently offered include the species Lutea, and seeds from two cultivars of which all seeds would be new seedlings as the genetics are not stable in cultivars. Those two plants are 'The President', and 'Deacon deGarmeaux'. Both larger pink to red single petal lotus. If there is demand we will offer more seed in the future though we do not ever advise growing from seed if you want a genetic duplicate of a pictured lotus. Only vegetative cultivation will keep hybrids true to name.
