This kind of "flower" is easier to grow than green radish, and its flowers are more beautiful than peonies. It is most suitable for autumn.

This plant is: red lotus. Although red lotus is not a plant that we often grow in our daily lives, the flowers it blooms are no worse than peonies! And what everyone doesn’t know is that although the red lotus may not be well-known, it is actually easier to grow than the green ivy!

If we look at the appearance of the red lotus, we can see that the colors of the leaves and the edges of the leaves are different, and the combination is very comfortable. When the flowers bloom, the flowers of the red lotus are not only beautiful in color, but also very large.

If you want to grow red lotus well, you must be familiar with its growth habits so that you can take better measures and make it grow better. Red lotus is not only cold-resistant, but also very heat-resistant. This growth habit makes it not so picky about the environmental temperature, and during the cultivation process, only ordinary garden soil is needed.

Other issues include fertilizer and water. When fertilizing it, as long as you follow the principle of applying small amounts of fertilizer frequently, you can ensure the basic growth of the red lotus. When watering, try to observe the dryness and wetness of the soil as much as possible. Water when the soil is dry and wet each time. Do not water the red lotus frequently.

Then there is the flowering period. The flowering period of red lotus is not very fixed. Generally speaking, it blooms in summer and autumn. As we said before, the flowers of red lotus are really big and beautiful, and their beauty is definitely not inferior to that of peonies!

In Yunnan, where red lotus grows more frequently, the blooming red lotus is called "Pao Da Si Men". This is because the petals of the red lotus spread out in all directions when it blooms. I have to say, the description is really apt.
