Reply:It seems you are receiving mixed answers. If you are looking for the largest single flower, that would be Rafflesia. The titan arum is far larger, but only qualifies as the largest unbranched inflorescence. Meanwhile, the Talipot palm has the largest branched inflorescence. It all depends on how you define "flower."
