Favorite small lotus?

What is your favorite small growing lotus?  I've got Momo Botan & love the double pink.

Pretty!

I'm thinking of switching over completely to small lotuses next year. I have a little Baby Doll that Joyce gave me. I've never tried small lotuses before but so far it seems a lot more maneageable.

I favor small/dwarf/mini plants in general as I have a small yard and it allows me to cram more in.

I just checked one of Slocum's books out of the library and he mentions that there is a Momo Batan Minima that is even smaller than Momo Batan. I'd love to get a hold of it for my greenhouse!

Guess I have to say that the BabyDoll Lotus is my favorite small Lotus, just because its the only small one I have. 

I had a Momo Botan the first year I tried Lotus, I bought 2 and 1 made it my Perry Slocum.  I have 4 new Lotus this year, but I see what I will be getting next year....Momo Botan that is one PRETTY LOTUS!!!.  That will be on my wish list for spring.
