Do you know what is the largest flower in the world? How about a list of the most expensive flowers? How about a list of top twelve most beautiful flowers in the world. According to the recent article here are the twelve most beautiful flowers in the world. Passion Flower, Gazanias, Plumerias, Dahlias, orchids, tulips, calla lilies, water lilies, clematis, magnolias, Bird of Paradise and Roses. 

 


All the above twelve most beautiful flowers with the exception of the water lily , I have grown and cultivated in my gardens in the Philippines ( Chateau Du Mer, Marindque) and also here in US ( Bay Area, Sacramento Area, Central Valley of California, Kansas City, Missouri and Silver Spring, MD). 

Not in the top twelve list, the flowers that I have cultivated are Camelias, Peonies, Hibiscus,  Bougainvillas, Hydrangeas, Geraniums, Azelias, Rhodondendrons and Begonias.

Here's a video of the largest flower in the world- Rafflesia arnoldii.
