"Red lotus"... I was thinking Nelumbo 'Pekinensis Rubra', or similar. Not a Nelumbo (true lotus) then I take it?

I'm also used to "lotus" being an outdoor plant. I have 'Mrs. Perry D. Slocum' and 'Momo Botan'.

What then is "red lotus"
Bye for now,

Nelumbo is also aquatic

Oh, that's a nice plant! The only Nymphaea I was familiar with as "lotus" is the Nile Lotus. I learned something.

I do grow cold hardy Nymphaea outdoors, but never tried zenkeri... that i know of.

I do have a couple bulbs that came dry in a package. They were labeled just as Nymphaea, no species mentioned. They are red leaved, but have never done much for me. Probably because I don't use CO2.

>Nelumbo is also aquatic>

I know, I grow them. But not in an aquarium.

Ohhhhh. When you said you were used to lotus being and "outdoor plant", I automatically thought "not aquatic". Sorry about that.

...and a bump for vancat for a great plant!
