This flower has one more peculiarity: its species is currently found only on the American island of Hawaii.

parrot's beak

This beautiful flower, with its exuberant colors and delicate shape, as it has a central detail that resembles a parrot's beak, is a rarity.

Currently it can be found in luxury gardens, mansions and important buildings around the world. A prestige item.

However, it comes from the pine forests of the Canary Islands, more precisely on the Tenerife Islands, and has been cataloged as a flower since 1884.

Over the years it has become rarer and scarcer, which has increased its price and demand.

Red Petunia

This is a flower that fits as a novelty in the botanical world, because its exploitation is still recent.

Its discovery dates back to 2007 and is special for an equally rare reason: this is the only Petunia that manages to be pollinated by hummingbirds.

Therefore, its cultivation and propagation is very difficult, generally better developed when combined with other plants of other species.
