K thanks. That means I'll plant it on the opposite side of the yard.

The best fertilizer for me is Veggie Multicote. (17-17-17)
Veggie Osmocote is easier to find and just about as good. (14-14-14)
I put it at the bottom of a hole-less pot, under all the soil, which is compost for me. :)

Hi,

How often do you fertilize your lotus?  I grow them in a container using slow release fertilizer.  Thanks,  danny

I think she did it just once per season. If I am incorrect hopefully someone here on the board will bump this post.
