Lotus Planting Instructions
Plant your lotus tuber in a wide, shallow container using loam soil. Fill the container 2/3 full of loam soil. Dig a trench on the surface of the soil. Gently place the lotus tuber in the trench taking care not to break or damage the growth tips. Cover all but the growth tips with an inch or two of soil, leaving the growth tips exposed. Gently add 5 - 6 inches of water above the soil and place in an area outdoors that receives 8 - 12 hours of sunlight daily.
How To Fertilize Your Lotus Plant
Fertilize your lotus only after you have aerial leaves growing out of the water. We recommend 'Waterlily World Fertilizer Tabs' for optimum growth and best bloom.
