A fertilized lotus flower bears fruit that contains a cluster of 10 to 30 seeds. Each seed is ovoid 1–2.5 cm wide by 1–1.5 cm long with a brownish coat. [21] :132 Lotus seeds can remain viable after long periods of dormancy. In 1994, a seed from a sacred lotus, dated at roughly 1,300 years old ± 270 years, was successfully germinated. [22] [23] Blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea), also known as the blue water lily, is a beautiful aquatic plant that is native to parts of Africa and Asia. Its vibrant blue flowers and calming effects have made it a popular choice for gardens and ponds. If you're looking to promote the growth of your blue lotus, it's important to choose the right fertilizers. In this article, we will explore the types of fertilizers that are best suited for blue lotus and how to use them effectively. Not much scientific research has been done in regards to the effects of the blue lotus, but we still have a good idea of where it can be useful. • Aphrodisiac Texas A and M University Bioinformatics Working Group: Cronquist System".

Start by removing any weeds or debris from the planting area. Loosen the soil to a depth of about 6-8 inches using a garden fork or a tiller. This will help the plant's roots penetrate the soil easily and establish themselves. a b Wu C, Xia Y, Tang X (2013) Optimization of the fermentation process for lotus rice-wine production by response surface methodology.
