Fast growing from tiny bulb
Really impressed with this plant. Came as a small moist bulb the size of a walnut. Didn't look like much, but when poggled into the substrate as in the instructions, took off like crazy within days. I can only wonder whether the people who had no success didn't have a very successful setup in the first place. Ours is in a large tropical tank established only 5 weeks ago with numerous other plants, aqua soil substrate, with the granular substrate over the top and slate chippings. This is the growth on around 3 weeks, with plant at bottom and leaf stalk reaching water surface already giving floating water Lily leaves

Grown great but sent green not red
Waited a few weeks till it grew and to see if the colours changed, I ordered a red one and got a green one. My partner had bought a couple and I loved them and his were red, so I'm really disappointed that Mines green I was hoping for a nice bit of colour but it still looks nice and has grown wonderfully, i would buy again just be aware you may get a different colour than expectedVerified purchase: Yes

A great focal point
This arrived as described, just a bulb. Within 2 weeks it started to sprout, a week after that it is pretty huge and a great focal point within the tank. It seems to change throughout the day with the lighting levels. Great plant.

Very nice red aquatic plant.
Easy just need some patience and the bulb will transform into a bushy, nice patterned red plant. Stay red no matter what. Just keep the bulb above the susbstrate, elsewhere will rot. The roots will find their way. The pic shows a 1 month old plant

I expected to get dormant bulb. However, it had already few tiny leaves and beginnings of roots. After planting it has started to grow steady and well, and color of leaves is beautiful.Verified purchase: Yes

Perfect
The bulbs arrived firm and didn't smell which is a very good start. I have had them in my aquarium for less than 24 hours and I can see roots which there were none on the bulbs when they arrived . As this is the first time I have used this plant I did my research and I am very glad I did before I bought them .I am looking forward to seeing them grow in the weeks and months to come and I am also glad that I got really lucky in finding a good ebay seller with a good quality stockVerified purchase: Yes

Pretty lily
Looks pretty in the aquarium. Didnt look much when it arrived but its colouring is a lovely contrast to other greenery. Very striking once it starts growing. Took off with a weekly dose of aquarium plant food and a co2 boostVerified purchase: Yes

Red Tiger Lotus Bulb.
Royal Mail took their time to deliver this item, however it was growing new leaves when it did arrive and has continued to thrive since. Very satisfied.Verified purchase: Yes

Lily is growing fine
When it first arrived I wasn’t convinced that the lily was going to take as it was dry so I thought I’d been had. But - I followed the instructions and planted the bulb base in the gravel and left it alone. Within a few days the leaves had picked up and started growing. Now I’ve noticed what appear to be roots sprouting along with some new leaves. The bulb is about the size of an acorn but since I have a small tank it’s just fine for me. Since the lily appears to be growing I think it should survive just fine, so therefore I would recommend this item.Verified purchase: Yes

I am extremely happy with this purchase
As the instructions state,this plant will arrive very small but will grow, which is exactly what happened, after day 1 three leaves appeared, after day 2 they unfurled, after day 3 they began to grow, now a week later I have a very healthy looking plant with 6 leaves getting bigger all the time and best of all (so far) the snails leave it alone. I am extremely happy with this purchase, and having bought a few things from this company now I am not surprised as every product they have provided so far has been quality, so I will definitely use them as my first stop for aquatic plants from now on.Verified purchase: Yes
