How to improve flexibility?

I am one of the most inflexible people you will ever meet, especially in my lower body. Just by sitting against the wall with my legs straight, i can feel a pull. does anyone have any tips to improve flexibility? I do 10min of stretching after my workouts but it hasnt helped me improve my flexibilty. It mostly helps to prevent injury.  I really want to be visibly more flexible, eg. to be able to touch my toes, to be able  to open up my hips so i can sit in a semi lotus position. Should i stretch for longer time periods like 30min or even one hour? I know many lower body stretching exercises, should i do them for longer, or are certain exercises better than others? send along any videos or advice thanks in advance!
