Blue Lotus Leaf | Nymphaea Caerulea

Description

Blue Lotus Leaf.

100% genuine Nymphaea Caerulea Leaf.

Blue water lilies have leaves (lily pads) that rest on top of the water, whereas lotus leaves are held above the water. For this reason, they are more often used in smudge blends or smoked than as tea. Sacred Lotus Leaves, which are held above the water, make a very popular and fantastic tea. You can see a nice example of a water lotus on our product information page.
