What season do lotuses bloom?
You may not know the season when lotuses bloom and the brief introduction of the plant cultivation experience for appreciating lotus flowers. I will introduce it in detail for you below.
Regarding the question of when lotus flowers bloom, many experts have already given clear conclusions, which is from late June to October. Here, I won't elaborate further. I just want to illustrate my point of view through the poem "Xiao Chu Jing Ci Temple Sending Lin Zifang" by Yang Wanli.
In the poem, the month of June refers to the lunar June, as experts have said that the blooming time of lotus flowers should be in the solar late June. Yang Wanli's "Lotus leaves reaching the sky endless green, lotus flowers reflecting the sun with a unique red" is already the season of full bloom. Such a scene is not very suitable in the solar June, so I infer it is the lunar June, which is much later, and according to the solar calendar, it would be in mid-July.
Exactly the lotus festival in Baoding, Hebei's Baiyangdian is from July 23rd to September 23rd, which is the best time for lotus flowers to bloom. When I visited, I also saw the beautiful scene of "Lotus leaves reaching the sky endless green, lotus flowers reflecting the sun with a unique red." It seems that lotus flowers bloom around late June as experts say. However, due to different temperatures in different regions, the blooming time varies. For example, lotus flowers in Hainan bloom earliest, while in Heilongjiang in the northeast, they bloom latest. But lotus flowers always bloom in the local summer.
How to make lotus flowers bloom more vividly?
Light: Lotus flowers love the sun. To make them bloom earlier and more vividly, we can keep lotus flowers in sufficient sunlight. However, smaller lotus flowers should be kept in a place with some shade, especially during the intense sunlight of summer. Once the lotus has grown vertical leaves, it can be placed in full sunlight, which helps better photosynthesis and makes the leaves more vigorous.
Pruning: If there are too many leaves on the lotus, we can replant the withered and dense leaves into the water, which is more conducive to ventilation and light transmission of the leaves and reduces excessive nutrient loss, allowing the lotus to grow better and bloom more vividly. Leaves planted in river mud can also play a role in "turning into spring mud to protect flowers."
What season do lotuses bloom?
Fertilization: When planting lotus flowers, some base fertilizer should be added, or fertilizers like decomposed leaf soil or pond mud, which can make the lotus grow more vigorously. During the growth period of lotus, we can also apply thin nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers, but the amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be less. It is also possible to bury some decomposed manure, which can also make the lotus grow more vigorously and bloom more vividly.
Watering: Some flower friends may say, since lotus flowers grow in water, do we need to water them? This is indeed true, as the amount of water needed at different stages of lotus growth varies. For example, in the early stage of lotus growth, the water level is shallow. After the lotus has grown vertical leaves, more water is needed, but not too much to cover the leaves. After the lotus blooms, less water is needed again, which is conducive to photosynthesis and makes the lotus root grow faster, but not too little water.
Conclusion
When do lotus flowers bloom? My answer is also in late June, and due to different temperatures in different regions, the blooming time of lotus flowers varies. To make lotus flowers bloom more beautifully and fragrant, we need sufficient sunlight, proper pruning of dense and withered leaves, applying base fertilizer at planting, then frequently applying thin phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and watering less in the early stage, more when blooming, and less after blooming to make the lotus bloom vividly.
