Default Lotus bloom

The plants are in a bog and along about 10 feet of the edge of a 5000
gallon pond. They were so successful last year that I had to reduce
the population during the winter.
They sure are pretty.

=================================
This 100g pool I have mine in is like a bog and the plant thrives. It's
about 5' tall. I just fertilized it with a 5-10-5 before I came back in
(it's HOT out there). I'm starting to wonder if this Lotus has some kind of
genetic problem and is just unable to bloom. I believe these plants are
called "blind."
