Tiger Lotus (Nymphaea lotus) are dramatic middle and background plants for the aquarium. They will produce tall, floating leaves of mottled green and red as well as small submerged leaves. They occasionally grow a flower that blooms at night above the water level. Pruning the floating leaves will help to keep the plant compact.
Lotus are very heavy root feeders and need a nutrient rich soil and benefit from extra fertilizers. Take care when planting these plants in a tank with snails or other algae eaters as the delicate leaves can be easily eaten or damaged.
