Joyful Eyes is a fantastic dwarf lotus, only growing to 3' to 4' tall. One great attribute of lotuses is that they do not have to be put into a large pond, or even a medium sized pond, but can be in your pond. You can grow a plant in a large pot or tub that holds water. You can use the plants as decor around your pond, or anywhere around your landscape. The large leaves and blooms stand high above the water, so can be seen easily throughout the scenery. They will bloom throughout the summer so they will be a joy for more than just a month or two. With a variety of colors and sizes, they can fill almost any need.
