A Lotus seems to be the plant that every water garden owner yearns for. They tend to be sun loving, dramatic plants that can be the exotic centerpiece of your water garden. Most likely you will receive your lotus as a tuber. The tuber needs to be handled carefully. The tips of the tuber (or eyes) are where the leaves will grow. If the tips are broken off, there is a good chance that the tuber will not grow (sometimes they do grow another tip).
Your planted lotus should be located in a sunny spot in your pond, in relatively still water. Your container should be 6 to 12 inches below the surface of the water.

here is steps to grow lotus
1. Fill your no hole lotus pot bottom of loam soil (loam soil is a mix of equal parts soil, sand and clay. 1/3 garden soil, 1/3 play sand and 1/3 clay
2. Dig a shallow trench across the top of the loam soil
3. Place your lotus tuber in the trench, being careful not to break or damage the growth tips, gently bring soil up around the lotus tuber being careful to keep the growth tips exposed
4. Gently add 2-3 inches of water above the soil (the smaller the variety, the more shallow the water). gently pour out the water and gently add fresh water, being careful not to disturb the tuber
5. Place the lotus container in full sun, in a week or so you should have coin leaves on the surface of the water
6. Once you have aerial leaves (not coin leaves) growing out of the water, you may fertilize your lotus
7. Once your lotus is established, you can fertilize every three weeks during the growing/blooming season with the regular dosage of fertilizer, for healthy plants and best bloom!. Once you have made your lotus selection,
8.you will have to provide a no holes pot to grow your lotus. The size of the lotus you have chosen will also determine the size of the pot that you will use. The smaller lotus, Exquisite of Bowl will use 11-15 inches in diameter container, Small or Dwarf will use pots 16-20 inches in diameter, Medium sized lotus will use a pot 18-30 inches in diameter and
9.Tall lotus will use pots 24-48 inches in diameter or larger. Pot size will also determine how large your lotus will grow and how many flowers it will have. Cramming a tall lotus in a small pot will stunt the growth and not allow as many blooms.i also recommend round pots as this allows the runners the freedom to run around the pot and not get stuck in a corner!
