The six most expensive flowers in the world

If you’ve ever wondered which flowers are the most expensive, here are the top six.

Kadupul - Priceless

Also known as the Queen of the Night, this beautiful cactus flower blooms rarely, only at night, and withers before dawn. The short lifespan makes it extremely rare and technically invaluable.

Gold Kinabalu or Rothschild orchid - 5 thousand dollars

Also known as the "royal orchid", this rare and endangered species takes 15 years to grow and bloom. It can be found only in the Kinabalu National Park in Malaysia on the slopes of the mountain of the same name, above the rivers, at an altitude of 350-900 m.

Rose Julia - $ 3 million

Julia is the most expensive rose ever grown.

Shenzhen Nongke Orchid - $ 210,000

The rare plant blooms every four to five years. It was sold at auction for about $ 210,000.

Saffron - price varies

The anthers are used to make the spice of the same name, which is actually the most expensive in the world - about 80,000 flowers are needed for 500 grams.

Gardenia

It cannot be bought per piece of flower, but the whole plant is bought. That is why it is one of the most expensive "ordinary" flowers.
