A friend of mine showed this to me, knowing I like plants. Anyone heard of these before?

They're Diphylleia Grayi, apparently, they're white flowers that turn clear in the rain.

Kind of cool, I thought.

Very cool plant but im not sure if thats a photo shopped image or not because it seems like there are only about four images of the transparent flowers in existance and those four are duplicated or cropped and plastered all over social media sites - i would love to see some pictures of this plant in the wild
