 | | Though this lily is sometimes referred to as Blue Lotus of the Nile, and was part of the ancient Egyptian culture, it is not a lotus. |
 | | The lotus prefer temperatures between 85-95 degrees and they like humidity, however, they will grow in hot and dry conditions, due to the way the leaves stand high above the water the wind makes the leaves turn brown and curl around the edges. |
 | | Lotus can be grown in tubs or large containers as long as the soil is kept very wet by having at least 2-6 inches of water above the soil where they are planted. |
