I found this the most unusual flower in my garden. Sometime ago, as I was strolling in our garden I saw something from a distance that looked like a coiled up snake.I coiled up too looking at it but when I went there closer what I saw was a flower that had emerged from the ground. There were no leaves. I let the flower be. A few days later I saw a leaf emerging and then I realised that the flower was that of yam. Do you have any unusual flowers in your garden?

I wouldn't have known what this was. It is certainly unusual - and very beautiful.

I even had the turmeric plant give out flowers. I have not taken pictures but will watch out.

This is unusual for sure, I do not think to have unusual flowers in my garden, at least they are not unusual for our country.

No, all flowers in our garden are of the common variety.

I don't have unusual flowers. The flower in the picture may be unusual but looks good.
