stachaj Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Hi there, First post on the forum... Here's my question: does anybody know where I can buy/find/get a big open lotus flower in Chiang Mai? Tried Flower Market near Warorot, and flower centre near Tesco but no luck, I can only find small ones, or closed ones that don't open but just turn brown after a few days... I need this for a photo shoot. Is there another flower market to try, or a lotus pond somewhere where I could just cut one? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 If you talk to the biggest lotus seller at Kamthieng (can't miss her, she is on the last soi in a corner space across from where the orchid sellers are), she will sell you a lotus that is about to flower or has bloomed. She speaks English and so does her little daughter who is there in the afternoons. BTW lotus flowers open in the full sun during the day and close in the evening.

stachaj Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 Thanks so much for the offer but I'm not motorized, so San sai is too far. But I appreciate. Thanks again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
