Flower Trivia : What is the most expensive flower in the world?
Answer: A few flowers come with astonishing price tags. Historically, the most expensive flower was the Semper Augustus tulip, which sold for as much as a fine home along the best canal in Amsterdam during the 17th century. Unique flowers, like a rare orchid sold at auction in China in 2005, come at a slightly lower price tag today. The new species of orchid, which took eight years to develop, sold for approximately $200,000.
