Indian Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera)

The Indian Lotus Flower
The Indian Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) is a beautiful aquatic plant
with pea green leaves that float on the top of the water surface. The pink
flowers are usually found on thick stems rising several centimeters above the
water.
The Indian Lotus flower is held sacred and is used by the Buddhists during
religious ceremonies. The whole plant is fit for human consumption; although
mainly the seeds and the roots (rhizomes) are usually used in traditional
cuisine throughout Southeast Asia. The Indian Lotus is a paludal plant that can
be grown in the same way as growing the fragrant water lily. It is not difficult
to grow this plant in our conditions; one must only know how!
