This plant is considered one of the most beautiful on Earth among those that are capable of blooming. Its homeland is the African continent. An amazing feature of this exotic flower is that it contains an incredible amount of nectar, for which the protea was nicknamed the “barrel of honey.”

The flower can be propagated and grown in Russian conditions. In a mild climate, the plant can become a garden perennial, and in a more severe climate it will decorate a greenhouse or at least a windowsill. To do this, it is important to provide the protea with warmth, plenty of light and a flow of fresh air.

Dahlia

Another beautiful flower from the vastness of Mexico, namely from its mountainous regions. Growing in the wild, it has two flowers - male and female. In the middle of the inflorescence there are fruit-bearing tubular flowers, and non-fertile flowers at the edges. This form is difficult to find in ornamental gardens, because breeders have worked for years to transform the middle flowers into non-fertile ones. This made the inflorescences fuller and denser, giving them a bright and variegated color palette. There are about 40 varieties of this plant.

African Hydnora

This plant can be safely used in horror films. Hydnora is a parasitic flower that grows in Africa. It attaches to the roots of plants, feeding from them. At the same time, the gidnora hides underground. Only if there is sufficient rainfall in the desert does it appear on the surface and bloom. This attracts beetles, which carry out pollination.

However, she needs insects not only for this. Hydnora is a carnivorous plant that feeds on beetles. It attracts insects with the smell of rot. At the same time, it itself is actively consumed not only by living creatures (jackals, baboons), but also by African tribes. Medicinal potions are prepared from its roots.

Thanks to the shape of a heart split in half, the name “broken heart” is firmly attached to the dicentra flower. The inner petals, stamens and pistils, are hidden under the outer petals. And the porous leaves have a gray-green and light green tint. The flower is native to North America and East Asia. The genus Dicentra includes 20 species, both annual and perennial plants, reaching a height of up to one meter. Although dicentra is a frost-resistant and unpretentious plant, careful care and fertile soil can turn it into a powerful, abundantly flowering bush.

Rafflesia

This flower weighs about 10 kilograms. It is a parasitic plant that has no roots, leaves or stem. Therefore, Rafflesia cannot carry out photosynthesis on its own. It receives all the necessary substances from the plants on which it parasitizes. Most often she prefers vines.

A giant bud, filled with liters of water, blooms right on the ground and “delights” those around with the smell of rotten meat. However, the lifespan of Rafflesia is very short - only 2-4 days.
