Nymphaea lotus, the white Egyptian lotus, tiger lotus, white lotus or Egyptian white water-lily, is a flowering plant of the family Nymphaeaceae.
When you re-pot the lotus plants to bigger pots it should hold 2-3 inches of water. Lotus can be re-potted in the early spring season when the growth begins. You can pick the tubers from the original pot when you observe the green shoots.
Inscriptions around the “Dendera Light” support this view, since these reference the rising sun, which will spring out of a lotus flower in the shape of the snake god Semataui.
Though the plant contains a quinolizidine alkaloid, nupharin, and related chemicals, either described according to sources as poisonous, intoxicating or without effects, it seems to have been consumed since Antiquity. In ancient Egypt, the lotus represented rebirth. This meaning was inspired by the nature of the lotus's petals that spread above water upon sensing sunlight and closed during the night so as for the flower to fall back under water
