This year, I decided to try growing a lotus. In April, I ordered a Frankly Scarlet lotus from matherfish. He sent two very nice tubers. I potted it up and lately it has been growing very well. However, I was still very surprised to see a small bud today! I had not expected it to bloom this year since I had read that they often takes two years before they bloom. Summer is slowly ending here but I hope it stays warm enough so that the bud matures enough to bloom this year.
