In this time of life-lists and books are 1001 places to see, to climb the mountains, trails for hiking, rivers for rafting, etc.. All work to do before you die, perhaps as a traveler and flower lovers we should use our own life-lists of sites around the world to develop flower. The oldest, largest, shortest - - wild flowers, crops, roadside or trail side and fruit trees - oddities, original, scented candles, and flower festivals and official flowers.Just Some birds, the plants on this list would be the must-sees Be Particular attention is on a bird watching at some time in a particular directory exists some flowering plants that might interest you travel a great distance to see. The plants on this list would be the "must-sees". Thesis beauties, among many others, the Bee Orchid native ICT in Cypress, the Egyptian blue lily in Cairo, the black screen at Petra, and the red poppies in Bhutan.But life-lists of many categories and a flower is living in Would Be-list is no exception. Earliest largest, heaviest, etc.. are all vying for your attention. Flowers for the largest category include: the world's largest wisteria that blooms in March in the town of Sierra Madre, California, and the largest rose tree (8,000 sqm Arbor) in growing, of all places, Tombstone, Arizona.Oldest Is another category . My list would include the oldest camellias in the New World on two plantations near Charleston, South Carolina (Magnolia and Middleton Place). The aim then should I look at the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty camellia plum tree at Black Dragon Pool in Longquan Hill, China. They are living works of art, especially when in bloom February.Tallest: Rhodendron the highest I have ever had of themselves in Sikkim, India, have heard, Stood and 60 feet high, and I want to see 'em bloom! (From May to October) Shortest? Would that be useful category for flowers? Could it apply to alpine plants, wild flowers, which are in effect, that grow at higher altitudes, where the soil is poor and extreme weather conditions. It could also lead to new breeds, such as azaleas are in Belgium. Maybe the original is still growing tulips in Turkey and the purple irises of Mount Gilboa, Israel would be made here.What about wildflowers? Would this really add to the list. Almost every place on earth has wildflowers. There are daisies in Namaqualand, South Africa, California poppies in the desert east of Los Angeles, the moors in Estonia, the red poppies in Tuscany, the vernal pools in northern California, the mountains of Bhutan, the bluebells in the UK, and the hills of Galilee, just to name a few. Then there's Australia, a wildflower lover paradise.Not Technically wild flowers make the wild herbs of the Mediterranean area for its lack of color in Distinctive Fragrance: namely, "pizza spice" taste. Set up the weeds along the Camino de Santiago, rosemary, thyme, lavender and wild wild rose thrown into the mix together. Heavenly Here's another category: Roadside TrailsideDesigns gold. Sometimes your best memory of a journey of the flowers that lined the roadside. For this group, I would say the rivals in the Madeira fuchsias chicory in SW Virginia and includes the wild roses of Nova Scotia.I 'd Have To Category oddities, too. The flowers of the Argan trees in Morocco are definitely strange - the local goats in the trees and get to eat the leaves when the trees are in bloom! The silver in Maui Haleakala Crater word Is Another odd-looking flower as proteas from South Africa. Would it naturally made here.The orchids are the flowers of crops. Flowers are grown is a global good and lavender now almost everywhere in the world (like sunflower and coffee). I would have to see if changing the types of circumstances and the growth of their scent. This study alone could take me to some interesting places: while I'm sniffing the air at the lavender farm in Tasmania, so I could see the pink areas, admire poppy fluttering in the breeze. Or I could compare to the intensity of the scent of roses from commercial fields between Turkey and fruit trees Bulgaria.What? There are festivals celebrating thesis flowering crops. Apricot blossom festival in Korea, Plum Blossom Festival to celebrate the Chinese New Year, Almond Blossom Festival in northern California, and of course the most famous of all, could have cherry blossom flowers in their own Japan.Some category. Violets grow in Alpine areas, swamps, hiking trails in dry areas along during the rainy season and in old gardens. Different colors would enhance the value of the list: yellow violets in Argentina, France, in purple, lavender, British Columbia, lavender / white in Japan ... This could go on and on.Perhaps The most interesting of the "origin" is category. I would definitely want to keep Turkey in the hills where the ancestors of the modern tulip cease to see. Then there is the source of the original African violets in Tanzania, the slope in Taxco, Mexico, where grow the original Christmas star (do not look busy, like modern poinsettia), the National Park in Argentina, where wild petunias If the stock of modern fragrance and the mountain in Japan, where centuries-old, white-blossoming cherry trees blooming in succession up the mountain and watch, as snowdrifts.What, bedding plants, Easter lilies, which originated in Bermuda? That would make the list is long events. I must simply ylang-ylang plantation in Madagascar to visit, then there are the peonies in China, mimosas in France, or daphne in the Dolomites ... And we have not even orchids I'll Have To aussi flower festival touches wait! -There is every month somewhere in the world. Again, I had a lot to choose from: crabapple festivals in China, Japan, Iceland and Rhode. There are several festivals, azaleas, hydrangeas, festivals and celebrations around the world, dogwood and rhododendron festivals in New Zealand, China, Japan, England, and in many places in the U.S.. I would have the Rose Festival in Morocco, Japan, New Zealand, China, and many cities in the US.Should I compare also "officially" Flowers? Such as the "Jacaranda City" awards given to the whole world, or the status on the national flower of flowers - that could be diplomatically difficult: the water lily is the national flower of several Asian countries. The same holds true for state flower: it is the sunflower in Kansas, it is for Wyoming Indian Paintbrush, aim for three states is to find the locations violet.So many flowers, so many places!
