The most bizarre flowers in the world

it would Seem that today in the capital you can buy a bouquet for the ordering of any flowers. But it´s not. In the world there are many plants with amazing flowers that are not suitable for bouquets, but the look in their natural habitat in a way that is simply breathtaking. Some of these plants we would like to introduce you next.

Modern Metropolitan flower delivery service will not be able to offer you to order a bouquet of flowers Psychotria elata, because these plants are on the verge of extinction. But seeing these flowers, even in the picture, at least once, you definitely will not forget. Why? Yes, because red Bud looks like a very unusual – in form it resembles a lush, seductive red lips. By the way, for similarity with passionate mouth “people” such flowers are called Hot lips, Flower lips and even the Lips of a prostitute. However, to be honest, Frank, those same red lips, which gave the name of Psychotria elata, are not really flowers, but rather bracts, first appear in those same red lips (in this condition a plant is just a couple of days), and then in place of red lips bloom with small yellow flowers.

by the Way, flowers delivery service will not be able to offer you this plant not only because it is on the verge (and all because of the popularity among collectors and deforestation) disappearance, but also because Hot lips belong to the family Rubiaceae. We remind you that plants of this extensive family are psychedelic drugs.

No less exotic, extraordinary than the above mentioned Flower lips look and buds of a plant called Chiranthodendron pentadactylon. And all because they are very similar to the red of the terrible hand of the Devil himself. By the way, for its similarity with the terrifying hand of the flower and got my other names – the Devil´s Hand, the Hand of a monkey. The hand of the Devil – it´s not really a flower, it is rather a tree that even bears fruit with an unusual earthy taste. It grows in Mexico and so, understandably, you will not be able to offer these flowers to Kiev. Delivery of this flower in our country is really quite difficult. However, in most Mexico Chiranthodendron pentadactylon – not uncommon. This tree at home grows pretty fast and usually reaches 20-25 metres in height.

the topic of the sinister, let´s move on to something sweet and light. Let this be Orchid called Anguloa uniflora. In fact, orchids – the flowers cheap which can be ordered in any floristic salon. However, this plant is not concerned. Buy a bunch to order from Orchid Anguloa uniflora subspecies you, at least, will not succeed because these plants grow in South America. As for charm, sweet looks, for which the flowers called Babies in diapers (the buds do resemble wrapped in a soft pink blanket babies), here also all is not so simple and there is also a kind of hell. The thing is that Babies in diapers eat… insects. Yes, during flowering the buds of these plants emit are very attractive to insects flavor. Wanting to eat nectar, insects fly up to the Bud falls through into the base, which firmly adhere and then begin to digest the flower. That is a cute Babies in diapers hiding something worse than even the Devil´s Hand with her meaty, useful fruit.

As we mentioned above, and the Hand of the Devil, and Hot lips, and Babies in diapers – this is not the flowers inexpensively which you can order in Kiev floristic salon. However, this is not a reason to be upset. Yes, suppose you do not offer such flowers Kiev, send them to impossible, but it´s a great excuse to take a trip to see all the beauty, the singularity of these and many other plants of the world.
