This is a high quality, organic, shade-dried version of the Sacred Blue Lily of the Nile Dried Flowers and Tops that other sites sell for twice as much.
Nymphaea Caerulea (Blue Lily) was held in very high esteem by the ancient Egyptians. Nymphaea Caerulea (Blue Lily) was worshipped as a visionary plant and was a symbol for the origins of life. Traditionally, Nymphaea Caerulea was drank after being soaked in warm water or wine, while a cigarette made of the dried flowers was smoked. These are flowers and tops only and are suspected to contain aporphine and nuciferine, natural alkaloids.

These are WHOLE organic blue lotus flower petals, hand-picked from a single pond, on a small farm in Nepal. Nelumbo nucifera (Sacred Lotus Petals) have become etched in folklore because of a fabulous people who supposedly occupied the north coast of Africa and lived on the lotus, which brought forgetfulness and happy indolence. The Sacred Lotus is often steeped in wine or tea. It is said to produce a "feeling of joy that permeates the whole body, emanating from every cell" that is "delightfully wonderful and lasts for some time."
Sacred Lotus contains lotusine, demethyl coclaurine, neferin, and nuciferine.

These are WHOLE organic Blue Lotus Flower Stamens, hand-picked from a single pond, on a small farm in Nepal. It takes a large amount of flowers to produce just a handful of stamens, so these are offered seasonally, and often disappear quickly. Lotus stamens are the most potent part of the Blue Lily plant, and are often referred to as the "poor man's" saffron. Only 1 teaspoon per cup of tea or 2 tablespoons per bottle of wine. Blue Lotus, in general, is said to produce a "feeling of joy that permeates the whole body, emanating from every cell" that is "delightfully wonderful and lasts for some time."
This action of the Lotus flower is true of animals as well as human beings. Lotus offers one of the highest vibrations of any flower. As well as stimulating spiritual evolvement it acts as a "booster" to other flower essences intensifying and spiritualizing their effects. Lotus essence acts on all levels encouraging a gentle unfolding of the highest potential within the animal.

Passion Flower contains the active alkaloid called Passiflorine, which shares similar psychoactive properties and sedating effects to a different well-known plant alkaloid. The leaves, stems and flowers of this herb all equally offer a nontoxic, non-addictive sedative with no known side effects, providing a calming effect on the central nervous system. Please note that this is a very "stemmy" herb. The leaves and stems are categorized as a hypnotic, a narcotic, a sedative, and a vasodilator, making Passionflower a prime candidate as a "potentiator", which is an herb that can be used for increasing the effects of other herbs.
Elsewhere in the world, Passion Flower has been used effectively for all kinds of nervousness disorders including insomnia, anxiety, depression, nervous tension, and many other medicinal effects. It has been shown to be so effective that the German Commission E has approved it for use in the treatment of insomnia and nervousness, just like their approval of Kava Kava for the same purpose, although Kava is mostly known for its pleasurable effects!

Red Poppy (Papaver rhoeas) contains a substance named rhoeadine. It's nonpoisonous and has been used as mild sedative for centuries. They have been found in Egyptian tombs dating back 3000 years, and this flower was often combined with Blue Lotus flowers when making an elixir out of alcohol, and is now a staple component of many resin blends due to its gentle sedative qualities.
Our poppy comes from the same private, organic farm that grows our exclusive Blue Lotus petals.

In WWI, powerful alcohol extract of Nymphaea alba was successfully used as an anesthetic when the traditional opiate anesthetic wasn't available. It is closely related to Nymphaea Caerulea (Blue Lotus), which was worshipped as a visionary plant and was a symbol for the origins of life. White Lotus has extremely similar alkaloid content as Blue Lotus, but because it is in less demand and less colorful, we can offer it as a less expensive, but extremely popular alternative.
The effects of the flower when prepared as a tea or decoction and ingested are said to be much like apomorphine. White lotus actually contains aporphine, which is closely related to apomorphine, differing only in the lack of two hydroxyl groups. It is very likely that is can be transformed into apomorphine through processing, storage or through one’s own metabolism. There are many who report feelings of floating and euphoric sensations after ingesting a potion made from the white water lily.

These are the prized flowers from the infamous Wild Dagga plant. The active component responsible for the euphoric effects of this plant is Leonurine, which has now been isolated and is being synthesized in a lab. South Africa made this plant famous, and there is use reported among several indigenous tribes, who used both the leaves and the flowers of this powerful ally. The flowers were often added to tobacco, but act as a great potentiator for many other herbs.
The flowers are where the most concentrated active alkaloids are, and as you decide where to purchase your Wild Dagga Flowers from, know this: There are many who offer Wild Dagga Flowers for less; but they typically have the useless, weighty seed pods with them. Ours flowers are soft, orange flowers only, hand-picked, with no pods, and they are already cheaper than anywhere else.
