KILIMANJARO FLOWER
This amazing and peculiar flower grows only on the slopes approaching the famed Mt. Kilimanjaro (which I summited back in 2003 during a humanitarian trip to Africa). I was able to pick four on the sly which I proudly display in a glass frame in my living room. I love this flower; it reminds me of the strength I articulated to make the summit.

Unbelievable - a rare and precious flower, so endangered it only grows on one location on the whole planet and you PICK FOUR OF THEM! I went to Kili last year and only saw one on my whole trek. I guess the others had been plucked by thoughtless humanitarians.
another anonymous also says ..... my thought exactly - how selfish!
