There can be few people who do not like flowers, but for most of us life without their colorful and often scented blooms would be unimaginable. Even if we do not have a garden flowers are still part of our life either displayed in the home or used in gatherings of all kinds from weddings to funerals. The article quoted below which I found on the Green Yard website claims to describe the twelve most beautiful flowers in the world. See if you agree with the choice.

Henry Beecher once? said, ?Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made, and forgot to put a soul into?. We couldn?t agree more!?Indeed God is an artist and flowers are perhaps one of his best creations!? Flowers have a very short life but undoubtedly a very significant one. For ages, this wonderful gift of nature has been helping us express our emotions and feelings! Their beauty, fragrance and brilliant colors are enough to make a person smile. A beautiful bouquet of sweet smelling flowers can be a perfect present for any occasion, be it anniversaries, birthdays or weddings! A number of flowers are also used for making beauty products and medicines and many of these have special significance or meanings (for example, red rose is the symbol of love!).
Roses, carnations, tulips, sunflower, dahlia?.and the list goes on. With so many options to choose from, selecting 12 most beautiful flowers in the world is certainly not an easy thing to do.. Here is a list of 12 most beautiful flowers in the world!

Passion Flower

??
Passion flower is a perennial vine with over 50 species and it belongs to the Passifloraceae family. This purple blue and white flower consists of ten sepals and petals and is around 10 cm wide. What I like most about passion flower is its unique form. Other than being exceptionally pretty, this exotic flower has high medicinal value.
