Title: Germinating Blue Lotus (Nymphaea caerulea)
Post by: WildandForaged on March 31, 2018, 06:11:36 PM

I recently received some extra goodies in a package and Blue Lotus happened to be one of them. I have tried to germinate about 30 or so blue lotus seeds in the past but never even gotten 1 to sprout.

Is there anyone on here with some tips or their own technique that they have had success with?

Sorry to hijack your thread, but I have some blue lotus seeds as well! Right now they're just collecting dust..
Are you going to grow them out in a pond? I have a small unheated aquarium and was thinking about trying to grow some lotus in it. Would this work?
