How to propagate green tiger lotus?

[fleekk]

Hi Bros,

How to propagate green tiger lotus? Do I just cut any one of the stem & replant it ? There is a bulb in mother plant, will cutting just one stem works?

Pls refer to photo to confirm is it red or green tiger lotus?

the main plant will produce runners. u can cut these runners later when they grow.

looks like a green to me. (nymphaea lotus var. viridis).

hope it helps.

Hi Pal,

I didn't know they are runner! If I understand you right, they will produce another shoot beside with a new bulb, Is that what you are saying? I guess it would be very difficult to occur right?

Anyway, thanks a lot for your info.

There will be another new plant beside the parent plant. So far, my red tiger lotus has produced 4 new plants.

yar its not difficult. took a pic of a runner from mine i wanted to show you, then i realised i can't upload on this forum.

they multiply quite easily, and many.

Green. I noticed that the green variety tend to put out fewer but bigger leaves, and the red smaller but more leaves.
