Fresh Lotus Flower (Single)

Lotus flowers hold significant cultural and religious significance and are used in various ways. They are commonly used in religious and spiritual rituals as offerings to deities, symbolizing purity, enlightenment, and divinity.

Colour of Flower

The Indian Lotus flower, typically comes in shades of pink and white. Pink is a more common colour but white lotus flowers are also prevalent. The colour of the lotus flower can vary based on factors such as the specific variety, environmental conditions and the age of the flower. Both pink and white lotus flowers hold cultural and symbolic significance in various cultures, representing purity, enlightenment and spiritual growth.

Lotus flowers are often sold in bud form and you can encourage them to bloom by placing the cut stems in water upon arrival. Here are some steps to consider:

1. Fresh Cut and Submerged Stems: Upon receiving lotus flowers, cut the stems at an angle. Place the cut stems in a vase or container with clean, fresh water.

2. Warm Water Encourages Blooming: Use warm water to encourage the lotus buds to open. Change the water daily to ensure freshness.

3.Patience for Blooming: Lotus flowers may take some time to bloom after being cut, and the timing can vary. Be patient and allow the natural blooming process to take place.

4. Storage for Later Blooming: If you want to store the lotus buds for a few days before encouraging them to bloom, you can keep them in a cool place, such as a refrigerator. When ready to display, follow the steps mentioned above by cutting the stems and placing them in warm water. It's essential to note that the blooming process might depend on various factors, including the freshness of the flowers, environmental conditions, and the specific stage of development when you receive them.

5. Keep the Environment Warm: Ensure the surrounding temperature is around 25°C to 35°C (77°F to 95°F), as this is optimal for lotus flowers to open up. Avoid cold environments, as lotus flowers are sensitive to temperature.

6. Trim the Stem: Cutting the stem at an angle under running water will help the flower absorb more water, promoting faster blooming.

7. Avoid Disturbing the Bud: Let the natural process of blooming occur. Trying to force the bud to open can damage the petals and prevent proper blooming.

Storage

Store in an airtight container: Place the Lotus Flowers in a clean, airtight container, such as a zip-lock bag or a sealed container and store them in refrigerator.
