13. Black bat flower (Tacca chantrieri)
Flowers tend to be colourful to attract pollinators, but this and the next entry lean to the dark side. The black bat flower has large black flowers which measure 30 centimetres and sprout 'whiskers' which reach 70 centimetres in length. It is found primarily in southeast Asia and prefers forests and valleys in shady areas.
