I believe i just found a lotus bud on my very small mrs. perry slocum?? i thought they didnt bloom until the second year, and this tuber was only potted like 8 weeks ago? Kinda exciting but i'm kinda confused? isnt it supposed to be bigger before it buds?

oh wow thats crazy i had no idea i was just expecting alot of foliage- so with the plant not being that big right now as its suppsoed to get will it be a small bud too? does it have to get a certain height like water lilies have to at least reach the surface, but with me only having a few inches above the soil line is that bad?

the bud will get bigger as it grows taller--but, the first bloom is always a bit wimpy...lotus do best in just a bit of water over the soil...they will grow in deeper water but, do just as well if not better in shallow water...the bud will eventually grow past the leaves and bloom a top of them...

I didn't think so at all, as I recall they are a lot taller. The fact that it appeared among the Lotus pads had me wondering
