| Ve Lotus... 
There is something fascinating about a Lotus. Sym- 
bolic of purity under temptation, so the followers of 
Buddha have sdid. 
In the Lotus we see beauty of form and harmony of 
color, great concave, shield-like leaves often 2 feet in 
diameter, large buds borne on long stems 4 to 8 feet tall, 
enormous flowers with delightful fragrance. 
Lotus are perennial, coming up year after year. They 
should be planted in full sunlight at a depth of from 6 to 
18 inches below water level in a container, which should 
be about 15 inches by 24 inches and at least 10 inches 
deep. Soil, a rich mixture of top soil and well rotted cow 
manure.
