Silk Tree (Albizia julibrissin)

Also known as mimosa trees, these small trees produce silky flowers that resemble little pom-poms. If that’s not enough of a reason to love them, they have a uniquely sweet fragrance. Although these trees are native to much of Asia, they have become invasive in parts of the United States. So keep that in mind before you add one of these trees to your yard.

Black Bat Flower (Tacca chantrieri)

It’s uncommon to find a black flower. It’s extraordinarily rare to come across a dark flower as strange looking as the black bat flower. These plants are native to Southeast Asia, where they grow in the understories of forests. Bat plants also come in other colors, but there’s something magical about this one.

Girlfriend Kiss (Palicourea elata)

While the small yellow flower of the girlfriend kiss plant isn’t anything special, the bright red bracts surrounding the bloom are unlike anything else you’ve ever seen…except for a pair of lips, of course. This plant is extremely sensitive to environmental conditions and is rarely found outside of its native habitat in South and Central America. And since its native rainforest environment is being threatened by deforestation, this plant has become endangered.

The Most Dominant Professional Sports Teams

Have you ever wondered which team is the most successful in each sport?

To find out, a comprehensive rubric was developed to award points based on a team’s playoff success, with progressively more points given for advancing further. This rubric was then used to determine the most historically successful team in each professional sport, as well as to measure how dominant they are compared to other teams in the league. The analysis considers both the highest percentage of rubric points earned and the gap between the best team and the second-best team in the rubric’s points.

Most Scenic City Cities At Night’ According To A New Report

Sightseeing isn’t just a daytime activity. After the sun goes down and the stars light up the sky, many cities around the world come alive with glittering lights, dancing fountains, and bustling markets. (Added bonus: Touring a city at night is a great way to beat some of the daytime heat!) To rank the world’s most scenic nighttime destinations, analysts at Travelbag, a company that arranges multi-destination trips, started with a seed list of 136 of the world’s most popular cities.

The team used criteria such as Instagram hashtags, light and noise pollution levels, as well as safety of walking alone at night to determine which 10 cities ranked the most scenic at night. Worth noting: The top-ranking cities dominating this list are notable for their illuminated skylines and buildings, which does bring about light pollution. (If stargazing is more your speed, these designated dark sky resorts  outside of city limits are great at turning down the lights so you can uninterrupted views of the night sky).
