Darlingtonia californica
The Cobra Lily (Darlingtonia californica) has to be one the coolest plants. Not only does it look like a snake (complete with forked tongue) but it is carnivorous. It can be challenging to grow in cultivation because in nature it prefers to grow along stream banks which keep its roots cool even when the outside air is hot.
