Land Lotus Flower Plant Description

The term “Land Lotus” commonly refers to certain terrestrial (soil-growing) plants that resemble the lotus flower (Nelumbo nucifera) in appearance but do not grow in water. However, in botanical usage, the true Lotus refers to Nelumbo nucifera (sacred lotus), an aquatic plant. If you're referring to a lotus-like plant that grows in soil (not water), you might be describing:

Nelumbo nucifera grown in specially designed soil beds (still needs wet or boggy conditions), or

A different plant entirely—like Nelumbo hybrids, Peony, or Torch Ginger—mistakenly called "land lotus" due to its appearance.

Assuming you're referring to a soil-grown, lotus-like ornamental plant, here’s a general description:
