Care Instructions for Zhong Shan Hong Tai (1000 Petals Lotus)
Follow these easy care instructions to ensure your 1000 Petals Lotus thrives and flourishes in your water garden:
- Light Requirements: This lotus plant requires full sunlight to grow and bloom. Ensure it gets at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily to produce its abundant, vibrant flowers.
- Water Depth: The ideal water depth for growing this lotus is 12-18 inches. For optimal growth, ensure the roots are submerged in water while allowing the leaves to float on the surface.
- Soil Type: Plant the lotus in heavy clay soil or an aquatic planting medium. Avoid regular garden soil or potting mix, as they may float or cloud the water.
- Container Size: If planting in a container, use a wide and shallow container that allows the plant to spread its roots. A container at least 12-14 inches in diameter is ideal for the 1000 Petals Lotus.
- Fertilizing: Fertilize during the growing season with a slow-release aquatic fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. Lotus plants are heavy feeders and will produce more blooms with regular feeding.
- Water Temperature: The Zhong Shan Hong Tai lotus prefers water temperatures of 75°F (24°C) or higher. In cooler regions, consider placing the plant in a sunny location to maintain a warm water temperature.
- Winter Dormancy: In regions with cold winters, the lotus will go dormant. Move the plant to a deeper part of the pond or indoors if temperatures drop below freezing. The plant will regrow in the spring when the water warms.
- Pest Control: Keep an eye out for pests such as aphids. Regularly inspect your plant and gently wash off any pests with water or use an organic pesticide to protect the plant’s health.
