Somahai - A Flower Forest Lotus (Bare Root)

Nelumbo nucifera — medium lotus, shipped as a dormant lotus tuber.

Just WOW! There aren't enough superlatives to describe 'Somahai'. A gift from our friend, Yann Mumber at Le Jardin Nelumbo in France, this lotus performed from the moment it was planted! Perfect, classic flowers on a medium lotus, we highly recommend this variety to our customers. The flowers are dense and they stand high above the leaves, stealing the show every time!

As a medium lotus, this one settles at 6 to 18 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.
