Description
Nymphaea ampla, known as White Water Lily, has been considered of very high spiritual and cultural importance. Dating back to ancient Egyptian times Lotus / Lily flower is a psychoactive plant used in traditional medicine for thousands of years as a natural aphrodisiac, sleep aid, relaxation and anxiety reliever.
Although there is much less information regarding this particular species, research has found Nymphaea species rubra and ampla also contain both aporphine and nuciferine like the more commonly known Blue Lily.
Technically called Waterlily, Lotus is commonly confused for and misused for this species. The term Lotus has been used by us for customer searching purposes only. Lotus refers to Nelumbo spp.
How to Brew Blue Lily Tea
Heat water to a boil. Use 5 grams of dried Blue Lily to 1-2 cups (250-500ml) of water. Pour the water over the tea, cover and leave to infuse for 5-10 minutes. Strain and serve.
A widely known practice is to soak 2-4 flowers in wine for 24 hours to give a noticeable and very pleasant synergy with the wine. If you choose to smoke it, roll dried flowers using rolling papers. All product forms will produce noticeable effect which can range from mild to a fairly strong sedative state.
