Thank you JanJ and Koi-Lo.

I find Lotuses so tempramental that I just wasn't willing to take the
risk this late in the season., so I gently twisted it around and
directed it back into the pot along with the main roots. It didn't
crack, so far so good.
=============================
After 7 or 8 years my Lotus still has not bloomed. I added extra fertilizer
and still not one bud. It's a pretty plant and back by the fence so I'll
keep it, but I would never purchase or trade for another one.
