Lotus love warmth. If you pull your lotus container out of the pond and place it in full sun in the spring (after frost danger is over), the lotus will grow faster because it will warm up more. Keep some water over the soil, and return it to the pond by early summer, once warm weather is here to stay.

It contai â¦ ns gray matter (neurons) responsible for the higher functions of thinking and information processing.he cerebral cortex is the outer layer of the cerebellum. It processes information from the sense organs and controls body movement. The cerebral cortex is not the outer la â¦ yer of the cerebellum.
