  • Lotus for Summer Holiday

    India contributes nearly 30% of global research on Lotus bioactives and phytochemistry. Yet, despite its immense scientific and cultural value, our school textbooks barely scratch the surface. This leaves a significant gap in a high schooler's understanding of indigenous science and modern ecology during their most formative years.


The participants experience a complete cycle of a plant growth from a seed to harvest, typically 60 to 90 days timeline.

Hibiscus Edition is designed to extend immersive experience of growing a plant from a cutting to its first flower

We have selected this magical plant to grow it from a tiny sucker to a 10 inch plant. Its slow growth takes around 90 to 180 days 

Lotus is deeply connected with Indian communities for its spiritual, cultural and culinary practices. Students grow it from a tuber to get its first bloom. We have covered commercial products of recent Lotus plant innovations as well.
