Rafflesia plants do not have traditional roots. Instead, they are parasitic and rely on host vines, typically from the Tetrastigma genus, to obtain nutrients and water. Their unique structure allows them to grow directly from the host plant's tissues, bypassing the need for roots. This adaptation is part of what makes Rafflesia one of the most unusual plants in the world.
