From the supplier
Blue Lotus | Nymphaea caerulea | Dried
Originally Blue Lotus (actually a water lily) grew only in the Nile delta, an exclusivity that led to its decline to the point of disappearance. Thanks to seed merchants and a re-discovered psychoactivity, it is now grown around the world by professionals and amateurs. Dosages of 5 to 10 grams of the flowers induces slight stimulation, a shift in thought processes, enhanced visual perception, and mild closed-eye visuals. Effects dissipate quickly after 2 hours.
A pack contains 10 grams of dried blue lotus flowers.
BLUE LOTUS DOSAGE
Take 5 grams per person of flowers and soak in hot water. For a traditional Egyptian drink, soak same amount of flowers in a bottle of wine for a few hours. The flowers make the wine bitter, but potent.
BLUE LOTUS ACTIVE COMPOUNDS
Active ingredients unknown, but believed to be various alkaloids. Our smartshop also carries essential oils, incense sticks and dried flowers if you're browsing.
Want it stronger? The 25x extract concentrates it, while white lotus is the milder sister plant. See every form in our blue lotus range.
Blue lotus is a Nymphaea water lily rather than a true lotus, and no vaporizing figure is published, so start low within the vape herbs bands. White Lotus is the milder sister plant, and Pink Lotus is the botanically unrelated Nelumbo sold under the same common name.
Dried flower at 5 to 10 grams is the traditional format, sitting alongside the tincture and the 25x extract in the herb shelf. The same flower reduced fifteen times over, in a 10ml bottle: Blue Lotus 15x tincture.
