Why Are Some Flowers So Rare?

There are many reasons behind the category of being rare the view of the reason I have mentioned below:

• If the plant is not getting the ideal environment for growing it will start disappearing which is the most common cause.
• The process of deforestation and the destruction of natural places is the main cause behind the extinction of plants as well as animals.
• There are some plants, flowers, and animals that used to live in a very small space with special needs. For example, there are some flowers that depend upon some specific pollinator for more growth.
• There are some flowers that are used to grow in a very specific condition which makes them rare to be found in all places.
• There are some plants that bloom very rarely, for example, the Corpse flower. 
• The lesser amount of cultivars is also the main cause of being rare full stop as the plants are used to get fame for some time then they start becoming rare. Which is basically the flower and the gardening marketing.
• Reproduction also matters as there are many flowers that have very weak reproduction abilities. Which means that they do find it very difficult to survive in nature.

Final Word:

There are the rarest flowers in the world which are weird and wonderful. For example, the stinking corpse lily is used to grow in a tropical environment. There are flowers that were extinct before they began to be rediscovered for example Cayman sage or Gibraltar campion. There are some lucky partners who are able to grow the rare flower category in their home garden.
