Propagation:
- separate the stalks of lotus patterns in the tropical and temperate zones, with stems can be propagated by rhizome sprouts from rhizomes separated from the mother plant. The cut stalks with sprouts long, 5-8 cm cut the roots out. If so mild it can be planted to it. If a seedling to be planted in pots with a diameter of 20-25 cm buried to a depth of about 3-5 cm soil, press firmly, pour water to cover by about 8-10 cm soil is clay, so that should help. Catch lonely to float up to the surface. When the new shoots are growing and so is the need to grow
- especially in tropical lotus flow separation BBL will flow from the roots of trees, then head to New germinated. Can be propagated by cuttings taken at the beginning of the shoot or kill the plant. Cutting the shoots that have grown to be cut to a length of about 2-3 and has an eye for about three spring flows that cut so deeply embedded soil 3-5 cm soil, press firmly to sprout up out of the eye and. develop new or next
- isolated from the leaves sprout. Lotus in tropical genus Nymphaea lotus some will sprout leaves in the middle of the points on the stem or leaves the terminal. Can be propagated by leaf cuttings with seedlings by cutting the stem attached 5-8 cm rod inserted into a container terminal at the plant to sprout leaves are attached to the surface. Use bricks or stones over the blade is not float. Add water to cover the top 6-10 cm of about two weeks to sprout roots cling to the soil and grow further
- Seed propagation method is rarely performed because of cumbersome and time-consuming. The lotus tray that must be propagated by seed only. The seeds are often used with lotus seeds, lotus came from breeding. Then collect the seeds were planted. To facilitate the sorting plant. How seeds are as follows: Prepare the soil without plants. Put into a container with a wide mouth and a depth of about 25-30 cm high by adding the soil to at least 10 cm of soil to customize smooth and tight. Water above the ground about 7-8 cm seed to seed germination, sprinkle evenly distributed on the surface will slowly submerge the lotus seeds and lotus seeds are large tray. Press the seeds to sink into the ground water above the surface about 15 cm container grown into a sunny dimly approximately one month from germinated seeds are soft. When the light is strong and leaves about 2-3 leaves it to grow to the desired separation.
