Supplementary knowledge:

Lotus root, is the underground stem of the lotus, can be used for food.

Lotus root is slightly sweet and crunchy, can be eaten raw or cooked, can also be nourishing into the medicine.

Lotus, also known as lotus flower, lotus root. It is a plant of the genus Lotus in the family of Lotusaceae.

Lotus is a perennial aquatic herb; rhizome transverse, fat, expanded internodes, within most of the longitudinal aeration channels, the nodes constricted, the upper black scale leaves, the lower beard-like adventitious roots.

Leaves rounded, peltate, 25 to 90 cm in diameter, surface dark green, covered with waxy white powder, abaxial surface gray-green, slightly undulate all over, smooth above, veins shooting out from the center below, with 1 to 2 times forked branches; petiole stout, terete, 1 to 2 meters long, hollow, outside scattered small spines. Pedicels and petioles equal or slightly longer, also scattered with small spines; petioles terete, densely barbed.

Flowers solitary at the top of the pedicel, high above the surface of the water, flowers 10 to 20 cm in diameter, beautiful, fragrant; single, compound, heavy and heavy table and other flower type; flower color white, pink, deep red, lavender, yellow or inter-colored and other variations; lotus leaves rectangular-rounded elliptic to obovate, 5 to 10 centimeters long, 3 to 5 centimeters wide, from the outside to the inside of the gradual small, sometimes into the stamens, rounded apex or pointed, the stamens numerous; pistils free from the petiole and petiole as long or slightly longer, also scattered small thorns outside. Stamens numerous; pistil free, buried in the obconical spongy receptacle, the surface of the receptacle with a majority of scattered honeycomb-shaped holes, pollinated and gradually expanding called rosette, each hole within a nutlet (lotus seed); anthers bar-shaped, filaments elongated, inserted under the receptacle; styles are very short, stigmas terminal; the receptacle (the rosette) diameter of 5 to 10 centimeters.

Nut ellipsoid or ovate, 1.8 to 2.5 centimeters long, pericarp leathery, hard, black-brown when ripe; seeds (rosettes) ovate or ellipsoid, 1.2 to 1.7 centimeters long, with a red or white testa. Flowering period June to September, daily opening in the morning and closing in the evening. Fruiting period from August to October. Lotus cultivars are many, according to the different uses can be divided into root lotus, child lotus and flower lotus three systems.

The lotus is one of the oldest dicotyledonous plants, and at the same time has some characteristics of monocotyledonous plants. The embryo of the lotus is wrapped in scales, similar to monocotyledons. In terms of flower structure, the lotus has 3 or 4 layers of perianth, outer sepal-like, inner petal-like, numerous stamens, free pistils, and uniglobed boat-shaped pollen grains. Lotus stems have obvious segmentation phenomenon, underground stem nodes full of fibrous roots. These are the characteristics of monocotyledonous plants. The buds of the lotus are mixed buds, and the lotus buds that people see are the terminal buds of the root as well as the axillary buds of each node. Roots are divided into two kinds: seed roots and adventitious roots. The main root formed by the embryonic root of the seed from which the seed is sown is underdeveloped, and it is the adventitious root that plays a functional role. The stem of the lotus is the root, which is the underground rhizome of the lotus, and is the organ for storing nutrients and reproduction. The flower of the lotus is solitary, bisexual, and consists of six parts: calyx, corolla, androecium, gynoecium, receptacle, and flower stalk. Various varieties, flower color is rich.

The lotus is a root-stealing aquatic flowers. Lotus root is the lotus flower horizontal in the silt of the fat underground stems. Lotus root cross-section has many different sizes of holes, which is the lotus flower to adapt to the water life of the formation of the air cavity. This kind of air cavity in the petiole, pedicel can also be seen. In the stem there are many tiny transport water conduit, conduit wall with thickened mucus-like lignocellulose. It has a certain degree of elasticity, when broken and stretched, so that the appearance of many white connected root silk. The old lotus root has more filaments than the micro-root. The terminal bud of the seed root is called "root thatch" and is covered with scales. When it sprouts, it produces a long, white, slender underground stem called the "lotus root". The roots are divided into nodes, which are surrounded by adventitious roots. The nodes produce leaves and flowers. The new root formed from the apex of the root band is called the main root, and in vigorous cases there are four to seven root tubes, 10 to 25 centimeters in length and about 6 to 12 centimeters in diameter. The branching roots from the main root are called sub-roots; the small onions that grow from the sub-roots are called grand-roots, and are often only one in number. Lotus root size, shape, color and lustre, the birth of the root of the early and late, into the mud depth, quality and flavor, etc., are due to varieties, but also by the cultivation and conditions of the impact.

Lotus leaves are large, up to 70 centimeters in diameter, fully linear, peltate-rounded, with 14 to 21 radial veins. The leaf surface is dark green, rough, and covered with short, blunt spines. There is a layer of waxy white powder between the spines, so it can make rainwater condense into rolling water droplets. Leaf back talk green, clean and hairless, veins raised, the center has a cylindrical petiole lifting the lotus leaves out of the water. On the stalk inverted denser spines, petioles and underground stems connected to the white, in the water and on the water part of the green. There are three kinds of leaves: the first leaves produced from the terminal buds are small in shape with thin stalks and float on the surface of the water, which are called money leaves or lotus money; the earliest leaves that grow from the root zone are slightly larger and also float on the surface of the water, which are called floating leaves; and the leaves that grow from the root zone and hold up to the surface of the water are called standing leaves. Whether it is money leaves, floating leaves or standing leaves, before they come out of the water, they are relatively inwardly rolled into a ribbed shape. The size, height and order of the standing leaves show a clear ascending and descending ladder according to the early and late growth. In the formation of the new roots when the standing leaves, than the front of the larger and shorter than the thorns, called "after the leaves", in front of the emergence of a small, short stalk, the back of the leaf reddish leaf, called "termination of the leaf". As long as people recognize the termination of the leaf, you can find the direction of the new lotus root in the mud.
