TYPES OF FLOWERS


Rare Flowers That Are Absolutely Beautiful (With Pictures)


What is the rarest flower in the world?

The flowers that are most commonly referred to as the rarest ones are Corpse Flower, Jade Vine, and Ghost Orchid. However, if we look at the flowers that have concrete information about their population size, the answer is clear. The rarest flower in the world is the Middlemist Red.

The scientific name of this flower is the Unspecified Camellia, and currently, there are only two known examples of this flower in the entire world. One is located at a greenhouse in New Zealand, while the other one can be found in the United Kingdom, in Chiswick House.

This flower originally came to England from China in 1804. The person that brought it westward was John Middlemist. He gave the extremely rare flower as a gift to the Kew Gardens. However, the flower vanished several decades later. It wasn’t until recently that another one bloomed at a greenhouse in the United Kingdom.



Scientific name: Amorphophallus titanum

Believed to be one of the largest and rarest flowers, the corpse flower is found in Indonesian rainforests and can reach up to 12 feet (3.6 meters) in its natural habitat. It is known as the corpse flower because it exudes an odor similar to that of rotten meat when it blooms.
