Rafflesia arnoldii is the largest single flower in the world, up to three feet across and with petals .75" thick. The titan arum, although it is nine feet tall and up to four feet wide, is technically an inflorescence, much like a sunflower. This means that it has many tiny male and female flowers inside of it. Rafflesia is a single, huge flower.
