Strelitzia nicolai
The flower of the nicolai isn't as colorful as its cousin the reginae(bird of paradise) but it is huge. This clump weighs over 6 kilograms. It is sagging from the weight that the stem cannot support. It oozes a sap to attract bees and birds.

thanks /t. It would be lethal if it fell on your head or used as a club to hit someone:)
