  11. Bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta): These small bell-shaped flowers are usually blue, creating a beautiful carpet of color when they bloom en masse in woodlands.

  12. Corpse Flower (Amorphophallus titanum): While not the most pleasant-smelling flower, the giant corpse flower is visually striking and blooms very rarely.

  13. Amaryllis (Hippeastrum): These flowers typically bloom in striking red, orange, and white colors and are known for their large, trumpet-like shape.
