How to choose a blue lotus flower supplier in the USA

Choosing a blue lotus supplier

Searching for a blue lotus flower supplier in the USA returns many sellers, and they are not equal. A few direct questions quickly separate dependable suppliers from risky ones.

Ten questions to ask

• What is the full botanical name? It should read Nymphaea caerulea.
• Which country is the flower from?
• Can I see photos of the exact lot?
• Is there a certificate of analysis, and for which lot?
• What is the moisture level and how was it tested?
• Which pack sizes and minimums do you offer?
• What is the lead time and which carrier is used?
• What are the payment terms?
• Can you do private label?
• Who do I call if something goes wrong?

Warning signs

• The label says only lotus with no Latin name.
• A price far below everyone else, with no documents.
• No named lab or lot number on a certificate.
• Health claims in the listing. A responsible seller does not make them.
• A seller with no phone, address or clear contact route.
