Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation: To enhance germination, carefully scarify the seeds by filing a small notch into the hard outer shell, being careful not to damage the inner seed. Soak the scarified seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours until they swell.
Sowing: Fill a container with heavy garden soil or clay. Plant the swollen seeds about 1-2 inches deep in the soil. Place the container in a sunny location where it can receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Watering: Gradually fill the container with water until the soil is submerged by 2-4 inches. Maintain the water level as the seedlings grow, ensuring the young plants are always covered with water.
Transplanting: Once the seedlings have developed several leaves and are strong enough to handle, transplant them to their final location in a pond or larger water garden. Ensure the water depth is appropriate for mature lotus plants, typically 12-18 inches.
Care Tips:
Sunlight: Pink lotuses require full sun to thrive. Ensure they receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and blooming.
Water Quality: Maintain clean water by periodically removing debris and ensuring good circulation. Avoid chlorinated water, as it can harm the plants.
Fertilizing: Use aquatic plant fertilizer tablets, placing them in the soil near the roots every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.
Winter Care: In colder climates, protect the lotus tubers by bringing them indoors or placing them in deeper water where they won’t freeze.
