Bestowing a "largest flower" title is not always as simple as measuring blooms. Indeed, Amorphophallus titanum—having an inflorescence that can grow 10 feet in height—is not small by any definition. But unlike Rafflesia, though, this large rainforest gem is composed of hundreds of small buds on a single stalk rather than a single flower.
