A lotus plant adapts itself to live in water by developing leaves and stems that waxy in texture and essentially "hydrophobic." Lotus plants have achieved the hydrophobic effect.
Well, honey, the lotus plant is actually neither a herb nor a shrub. It's a type of aquatic plant with beautiful flowers that float on the water. So, next time you're at the pond, just remember that the lotus plant is in a category all its own.

A lotus plant cannot grow in desert because a lotus plant grow in water and in desert there is no water.
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
Yes, lotus plants do release oxygen during the process of photosynthesis where they use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. However, the amount of oxygen produced by lotus plants may not be as high as some other aquatic plants due to their unique leaf structure and growth habits.

Yes, they are a water plant.

Water lilies and Lotus
Lotus is an aquatic plant fixed at the bottom of the pond. To reach the surface of the water lotus stems are thin & hollow.
No, the lotus plant does not have a taproot. Instead, it has a rhizomatous root system, where its roots grow horizontally beneath the water's surface, allowing it to anchor itself and absorb nutrients. The rhizomes can also produce new shoots and leaves, enabling the plant to spread and thrive in aquatic environments.
Lotus flowers generally grow in shallow, murky waters.

No, the blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) is not an ocean plant. It is a water lily that typically grows in ponds and shallow water bodies in regions like Egypt and other parts of East Africa.
