Pink Lotus
Holy Fire
The lotus ‘Holy Fire’ has to be among my favorites. It starts blooming here in April and the flowering has not missed a beat since. This early morning bloom, with the outer sepals not fully open, almost gives the impression the petals are contained in a bowl.
It bears some resemblance to a lotus Perry Slocum named ‘Ben Gibson’ but for me is Holy Fire is a better bloomer and a better flower. Petal color is pink tipped with paling red veins fading to almost a yellow. This is not a very large Lotus with flowers measuring only 5-6″ and leaves 10-13″. Holding it’s leaves above the water surface 3-4′ making it suitable for container growth. . This lotus was produced in 1988 by crossing the Momo botan and Alba Plena Lotus plants. It has many of the best characteristics of both -Long lasting blooms, and very fragrant.
There are several kinds of lotus flowers for you to choose from, available on the market today. Increase the luxury and ambiance that a garden pond provides already, by planting lotus flowers – these will bloom impressively and flourish in your personal outdoor sanctuary. Create an even more beautiful place to relax and unwind at home. Perennial pond plants such as lotus flowers are a great idea for any Koi pond. These plants want good soil, however, and humid condition. Nonetheless, it is not absolutely impossible, to adjust them to more dry environmental conditions.
