Bonsai recommendation: how to raise lotus bonsai without being stained with dirt?

Lotus has always been the object of poetry by ancient poets, not to mention that ancient scholars and scholars can recite two poems when they see anything. So when the ancients touted it so much, there were lotus flowers that people should like. I love to eat its roots. To get to the point, the lotus is compared to water hibiscus.

Light management: the lotus likes sunshine and cannot survive without light. If the lotus in the family is kept on the balcony, it should be exposed to the sun for at least 5 hours a day, so that it will not affect the flowering. In the flowering stage, the plant is in a half-yin and half-yang environment, the flowers and leaves will have a "partial head", the leaves will grow madly, and the beauty will decrease obviously.

Water management: water is the top priority for the conservation of lotus flowers. During the growing period, it is especially necessary to control the amount of water. Under normal circumstances, the water layer is about 5 centimeters, and when it is hot in summer, the water evaporates faster, so you must replenish it in time. After the beginning of winter, the basin soil should also be kept moist to prevent the seed lotus root from drying up due to lack of water.

Soil management: although the lotus has been growing in water, it still has a high demand for soil. Like humus-rich soil, or using lake pond mud is OK. If you find it troublesome, you can also configure the ratio of garden soil, loess and sandy soil to 4:3:3. But do not use chemical pollution mud and sewer sludge to save trouble, otherwise the loss outweighs the gain.
