Red tiger lotus propagation?

How do I get my tiger lotus to have babies?

There are 2 methods.............

1

not a good way) Cut the bulb into 2 parts (60% 40%). Hope you didnt kill the plant. If you didnt (which is very likely) the 2 parts will grow plants.

Wait for it to send leaves to the surface. It will then flower and hopefully drop seeds.

I get 2-3 new bulbs/month from my lotus.
