Explanation

Wolffia is the world's smallest flowering plant, barely 1mm across. It is extremely difficult to see not just because of its tiny size, but because it rarely flowers - it primarily reproduces by budding. When it does bloom, the flower is microscopic and often hidden among the floating plant bodies.
