Are lotus a non flowering plant or a flowering plant?

Answer 1

Presuming you are talking about Nelumbo species, then all parts are edible either raw or cooked. Although for any real nutrition, eat the roots after boiling them. There is no point in eating the green (or flowering) part of the plant as human beings cannot digest that part of the plant. Interesting side-note: our appendix used to have the function of digesting the green part of plants (chlorophyll) but we have long lost that function. Hope this helps, John
