Where do lotus flowers like to grow?

Lotus generally likes to grow in water or lakes, but it can also grow in calm shallow water, ponds and swamps. It cannot leave water at all times during its growing season, and the soil must be kept moist even in winter.

Lotus is generally distributed in subtropical and temperate regions such as Asia. In my country, it grows in most parts of the country, from Heilongjiang in the north to Hainan Island in the south, from Tianshan Mountains in the west to Shanghai in the east, except Tibet and Qinghai Province.

Lotus growth environment

The lotus is an aquatic plant. It prefers an environment with plenty of sunlight and water. The lotus is very afraid of shade and will wither within 3 hours of losing light. Therefore, a full-light environment is beneficial to its growth.

Lotus growing conditions

The lotus has very high requirements for the temperature and humidity of the growing environment, and the requirements at different growth stages are very different. So when the lotus is growing, its light and humidity need special attention. The light must be maintained at more than 10 hours a day. At the same time, the water level of the lake and pond must be stable and the water flow must be relatively gentle.
