Abstract: Nelumbo‘Da Huangfeng’，a new cultivar of ornamental lotus，was bred from Nelumbo ‘Ai Jiangnan’（Asian-American hybrid）× N. lutea‘DP23’（a narrow petalled）by artificial hybridization. When planted in 0.6 m2 pot，‘Da Huangfeng’is a medium-large（100 cm high）plant with slight yellow and single flower. Leaf area is 25–43 cm × 23–37 cm，flower density is 9–14 per pot and flower stalk is 100–160 cm high，which is higher than that of leaf. The number of flower petals is 24–25 and its flower diameter could reach 26–29 cm. The green-ripening receptacle is umbel or oblate shaped. The rhizomes expand cylindrically. The new cultivar blooms from June to August in the Yangtze River region of China.
