Is your lotus a hardy one? If so, it should winter over in Zone 4.
The only thing you have to worry about is Not to let the tuber
freeze.

I've done the web search and it looks like everybody read the same
book regarding this plant, but didn't tell me what I wanted to know.
What is the temperature that the plant will survive in a dormant state
to recover when the water warms again?
