Under normal circumstances, lotus will bloom in the hot summer, around June to September. Its flowering period is relatively long, and it can bloom for as long as 4 months. July and August are the times when the flowers bloom most vigorously, and it is more ornamental at this time. However, there are now many ways to control its flowering period, so the flowering time will vary.
