else was giving her away, a branch from a tree. The branch was covered with brightly
colored flowers and stood for the happiness she would have in her marriage.

most beautiful shapes and bright colors. These kinds of special flowers are sometimes
sold in florists’ shops for a lot of money.
4 – There is a type of flower that smells so bad it will make people’s mouths water. The
giant Arum flower from Africa has a carrot-like shape and a rotten meat smell. It is also
called the corpse plant because it smells like a dead body. When the flower opens, flies
come to take pollen from inside its stamen. The stench of this flower makes people
ignore it even though they may be walking by it every day.
5 – Some flowers only need to live for a few days. The Bird of Paradise plant from
Malaysia has a flower that blooms and then dies after just one day. It’s hard to believe it
can make seeds in such a short time!
6 – People have figured out how to eat flowers too! Some use the petals as a garnish or
in their salads.
7 – Some flowers are poisonous. The lily of the valley makes its berries smell sweet, but
they can be very dangerous if people eat them! The berries are poisonous.
8 – There is a flower that grows in some of the harshest conditions on Earth and still
looks stunning. The Saharan rose survives in one of the hottest places on this planet,
where there is very little rain or water. This kind of rose usually blooms after the first few
spots of rain of winter bringing green leaves back to the desert.
9 – Among the fun facts about flowers, here’s the funniest! Some plants have flowers

that looks just like the face of a monkey! Watch out for this trickster – it likes to play
practical jokes on people!
10 – If you’ve ever thought about growing your food, then you might know that flowers
can be used for food. Some flowers taste good and some taste bad, but all of them
provide something important for people – they take in the sun’s rays and turn them into
energy we can eat.
11 – Not all flowers are beautiful. Some, like weeds, grow wild very quickly and look as if
they’re trying to choke out the other plants around them.
12 – When it’s raining, many flowers open up and release their sweet smell into the air.
Their scent helps to lure in insects that will pollinate them, but you can enjoy this smell
too! It smells really nice when rain falls on a flower garden or field of wildflowers.
Flowers are amazing plants that have leaves, stems, and roots. They also have many
uses in different cultures. They can be used for weddings or as a type of art form,
