{{Use dmy dates|date=February 2017}}{{Use British English|date=February 2017}}Five ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Flora: - HMS Flora was a sloop ordered in 1755 but later cancelled.
- HMS Flora was a 32-gun fifth rate, previously the French ship Vestale. {{HMS|Unicorn|1748|6}} captured her in 1761 but the Royal Navy scuttled her in 1778 to avoid capture. The Americans salvaged her and she became a letter of marque. The Americans sold her to the French and she became the French privateer Flore in 1784. She was then recaptured by {{HMS|Phaeton|1782|6}} in 1798 and sold.
- {{HMS|Flora|1780}} was a 36-gun fifth rate launched in 1780 and wrecked in 1808. Because Flora served in the navy's Egyptian campaign between 8 March 1801 and 2 September, her officers and crew qualified for the clasp "Egypt" to the Naval General Service Medal, which the Admiralty issued in 1847 to all surviving claimants.[1]
- {{HMS|Flora|1844}} was a 44-gun fifth rate launched in 1844. She was on harbour service from 1851 and was sold in 1891.
