This lotus always makes you stop for a second look. Majestic, rich, deep pink flowers tower above the leaves. ‘East Lake Pink’ produces large seed pods suitable for using in floral arrangements. At the nursery ‘East Lake Pink’ usually grows to be a tall lotus (more than 48″ tall) but it will sometimes stay a few inches shorter.
