Pink Bowl - Classic Favorite Lotus (Bare Root)

Nelumbo nucifera ‘Fen Wanlian’ — medium lotus, shipped as a dormant lotus tuber.

A far to common name for such a lovely classic beauty! The bowl shaped flower is intensely pink on the first day and softens gently as it ages. The green sepals on the buds are especially striking once the bud begins to show its pink color. Old favorites do not become 'old' unless they are excellent cultivars and have staying power. 'Pink Bowl' is loved around the world for it beauty and dependability.

Pot size, soil and the rest of the method are in the lotus planting instructions.
