Dwarf Lotus like this one is great. You could enjoy the tropical flower with great fragrant without having to have a big pond. I’m in Seattle area, the weather is cold and damp till mid Spring. This plant needs warm climate and sun to grow. I got the bare roots delivered end of March, and planted them the next day. They come very fresh and healthy. I use aquarium heater to keep the water warm enough for the plant to grow. Have them for the 3rd year. Each root would bear 2-3 flowers, starting in May there would be 1-2 blooms and through the summer. Love love love Lotus. It’s my favorite flower. It’s beautiful but simple, humble looking flower. its fragrant is out of this world. They are easy to grow when the environmental factors are met. Need at least 15-17in. diameter container, one root per container. Harvest after 2nd year in Spring. I have more than 3 new roots after 2 years. and the original root is double its size. Have fun growing Lotus, it will be your favorite in the yard.

My order arrived in less than a week and the bare root lotus was so healthy. It already had leaves. I planted it and it was sprouting new leaves in just a few days!
