I read somewhere that you can get a bloom the first season if you are some place very warm and more tropical.

My experience with seed in Claremore, Oklahoma is that it took me 2 years or two seasons to get a bloom.

This photo is of a lotus seed that was taken out of a painted floral arrangement that was suppose to be at least 15 years old (that's why there is red glittery paint on the seed).
