Commonly known as the blue lotus, Nymphaea Caerulea is available in several forms, including dried plant material, teas, and extracts for electronic cigarettes. The psychoactive effects of the flower are attributed to two aporphine alkaloids: apomorphine and nuciferine.
These psychoactive effects make Nymphaea caerulea a likely candidate (among several) for the lotus plant eaten by the mythical Lotophagi in Homer's Odyssey. Used in aromatherapy, Nymphaea caerulea is purported to have a "divine" essence, bringing euphoria, heightened awareness and tranquility. [citation needed]
