The bright orange stamen complement the beautiful color on the petals and the dark green leaves. The flowers do not fade so the lotus stays pink until they drop.

As a large pond lotus, this one settles at 12 to 24 inches of water over the crown once established — start a new tuber under 2 to 4 inches and raise the level as it pushes aerial leaves, with the growing tip left uncovered. Pot size, soil and the rest of the method are in the lotus planting instructions.
