    This plant has one of the oddest life cycles. It grows into a tree that is actually just a single leaf. Then it withers down to a single flower which all takes an average of 7-10 years to bloom. Then it blooms for only 24-36 hours. You can actually see the next one growing in the background. It looks like a green tree.

    * They open once every decade, and last only one day, on full bloom.
    * Its called a flower but what you saw in the video is not, its down there
    * theres 28 species but this one is the biggest

    Woah! That is wild seeing it’s petals open and close in this time lapse. It looked like it was embracing itself or doing a theatrical dance - a butterfly emerging from its caccoon. And the climactic ending of it withering, almost collapsing in utter defeat. Wow! Better than opera!!! 🎭

      Alan Smithee It would growth until a months sometimes half of the years, they water that plant too because they put it in the pot not a land. If they have that plant in the land, they don't need to change into the pot, they can grow by itself.
