I saw this plant in the waiting area of a nail salon and it is the most unique looking plant I have ever seen. I tried asking the salon owners for the name of the plant, but they didn't know.
The leaves are a bit "ruffled" as in, not flat. The flower grew from a thick stem that sprouted from the edge of the leaf. The flower is about 6-7 inches in diameter and if you look closely, it almost looks like there is a tongue inside. Once the bud began to bloom, it fully bloomed in a very short time.
Does anyone know the name of dark green leafy plant that grows large white flower from edge of leaf?
known as King of Himalayan flower. very lucky if u see it bloom. botanical name: Saussurea obvallata.
Blooming period is very short
