This kit contains dwarf varieties of Lotus water lilies suitable for growing in pots, patio urns, or even in your backyard pond. The kit comes with 6 yellow water lily seeds, water lily fertilizer, and complete instructions on how to grow water lilies from seed. These seeds are dwarf varieties of Nelumbo water lilies, also called Lotus or Sacred Lotus water lilies. Using the supplied fertilizer you can grow these in any ceramic pot or other non-permeable container that holds at least one gallon of water and is at least 12" wide (the bigger the better). You can also use a glass water lily bowl available at most local larger craft stores. These do require weekly maintenance which includes replacing the water in your bowl. Please note - most water lily seeds sold on Etsy are Nymphaea water lilies which will not grow in pots or patio urns. Lotus lilies can be grown year-round indoors as long as they have at least 6 hours of sunlight. Outdoors they do require warmth to germinate and here in zone 7 we start them indoors in late April and move them outside to our patio in mid-May. In your backyard pond they are cold hardy to zone 5. The seeds do require some prep work to get them to germinate and usually only 50% of seeds successfully germinate to form lilies. Complete instructions will be provided with your kit. The seeds germinate and grow quickly, but they will take approximately 90 days to flower. There is enough fertilizer provided for a one gallon pot to flower for one outdoor growing season, or approximately 6 months. Lotus water lilies are perennials and sometimes they do take two growing seasons to flower. Similar to growing Dahlias, you can pull the root system and store over winter in water for most zones.

Victoria amazonica is a species of flowering plant, the largest of the water lily family Nymphaeaceae. I t is the national flower of Guyana. Its native regions are Guyana and tropical South America. The Victoria amazonica has very large leaves, up to 3 m in diameter, that float on the water's surface on a submerged stalk, 7–8 m in length. It is the largest waterlily in the world. V. amazonica is native to the shallow waters of the Amazon River basin, such as oxbow lakes and bayous. In their native habitat, the flowers first begin to open as the sun starts to set and can take up to 48 hours to fully open. These flowers can grow up to 40 cm (16 in) in diameter. Each plant will continue to produce flowers for a full growing season and they have co-evolved with a species of scarab beetle of the genus Cyclocephala, to improve its pollination. All the buds in a single patch will begin to open at the same time and as they do, they give off a fruity smell. At this point the flower petals are white and the beetles become attracted to both the colour and the smell of the flower. By nightfall the flower closes, the odor stops being emitted, and the beetle becomes trapped inside the carpellary appendages inside the flower. Here, the stamens are protected by the paracarpels and for the next day the flower continues to remain closed. They can hold at least 2-3 human beings on water . Seeds are fresh and sealed with little bit of water (picture attach)
