Hi readers I am back with a new post it is all about the rarest plants in the world.🌱🌲🌴🌳
These plants are found only in less places so lets go on and take a look at those rarest plants.
1. Rafflesia Arnoldii
It is the world's largest flower and also a rare one. It is also known as the corpse plant, because of the foul odour that is similar to decaying flesh. It doesn’t have a pleasant smell. You can find this flower in the dense rain-forests of Sumatra, Indonesia, Malaysia and Bengkulu.
2. Encephalartos Woodii
One of the rarest plants in the world is the Encephalartos Woodii which is conserved and restricted to the botanical garden. It was transported from Zululand. This plant is found in South Africa and is considered being extinct in the wild. Its variety had both male and female plants, but long ago there was no specimen of female plants found. That’s why there is no propagation and the male plant is now conserved.
3. Nepenthes Tenax
One of the weirdest looking plants is the Nepenthes Tenax which is considered one of the rare plants in the world. Having quite a few similarities with the pitcher plant, this plant grows up to a height of 100 cms with the pitcher shaped flower on the top, having a height of 15 cms.
