Expert Lotus Tips".

Why Nelumbo 'Ultimate 1000 Petals' is a Unique Choice

• The "Thousand-Petal" Wonder: This is one of the most physically impressive lotus varieties in existence. The blooms are so heavy with petals that they resemble giant, floating roses or peonies, often taking several days to fully unfurl each magnificent layer.

• A Statement Piece: Because the flowers are so dense and large, they command attention. This variety is perfect for gardeners who want a "conversation starter" displayed prominently in a patio container on a sunny porch.

• Sturdy Vertical Presence: Despite the weight of its massive blooms, this variety produces strong, thick stems that keep the flowers held high. Its large, emerald-green leaves provide the perfect backdrop for the deep pink blossoms.

• All lotus are heavy feeders and require regular fertilization from May to Mid August to flower well
