Lady's Slipper
This flower is amazing. It looks like a shoe. To be more exact, it is like a lady's slipper. That's how it gets its name. Although it was once found across Europe and the UK, now Lancashire in England is the only place where this plant can be found. The flower was so unusual that people picked almost all of them. Besides, it is one of the most difficult plants to grow. Fortunately, strict rules have been made to protect this endangered plant.
Hot Lips
When you see a plant like this, don't get shocked! No, they are not a woman's lips （唇）! You can find these plants in countries with tropical （热带的） rain forests, such as Colombia, Costa Rica and Panama. Because of the cutting down of trees, these unusual plants have become endangered.
Black Bat Flower
