Skeleton Flower

There’s a flower so magical, it transforms in the rain! Meet the Skeleton Flower (Diphylleia grayi), a delicate white bloom that turns transparent when wet. Native to the cool, wooded mountains of Japan, China, and the Appalachians, this flower’s petals reveal a glass-like clarity as water seeps through them, creating an enchanting, almost ethereal look. Once it dries, the petals return to their soft, snowy white.
