another lotus question
having my 1st lotus in 20 years,, I just planted the 'sucker' 2 weeks ago.
I ONLY have 2(two) 3" leaves ( on the water). mmmm. since they are nice & 'green' leaves, I can assume the plant is alive.. (end of tuber is out of soil) but WHEN can I expect some BIGGER out of water leaves??? I fertilized it when I planted it. its in a round tub. clay/dirt soil. topped with sand & small pea gravel, at the moment its 6 " beneath the water level. water temp is 75. |

another lotus question
Muffin, You mean that stomping the floor hasn't
brought forth the leaves you want ? lol ...sorry could not resist. Please give your lotus some time to catch its breath. It will soon reward you with aerials and buds. Which take Forever to open. ... the buds I mean.
