My Lotus seeds shipped from China have done amazing so far! Can't tell if their the real colour (red) yet obviously, but cant wait to find out at flowering time....if I can gather enough knowledge and luck before then 😉 (which will be at least 2 years if I'm lucky I've read). But yayyy I'm chuft 👌👍
