Dried lotus petals are delicate, papery, and brittle, retaining a soft, subtle floral fragrance and often a pale pink, white, or deep magenta hue. When fully dried, they are crisp to the touch and used for herbal tea, aromatherapy, skincare, and decorative purposes like potpourri, valued for their calming and astringent properties.
