{"product_id":"lotus-seeds-flower-plant-for-home-gardens","title":"Lotus Seeds - Flower Plant for Home Gardens","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"65\" data-end=\"697\"\u003eLotus, botanically known as \u003cem data-start=\"115\" data-end=\"133\"\u003eNelumbo nucifera\u003c\/em\u003e, is an aquatic perennial plant widely grown in ponds and water gardens. It develops large, round leaves that rise above the water surface and produces prominent flowers on sturdy stems. This plant thrives in warm climates and requires still water conditions with rich, loamy soil at the base. Lotus seeds have a hard outer coat and typically require scarification before sowing to improve germination. Once established, the plant spreads through rhizomes and adapts well to controlled water environments such as containers, ponds, and ornamental water features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp
