The Corpse Plant Flower




The Corpse Plant flowers infrequently, and for only a few days at a time. I think it may be one of the largest flowers in the world, and it certainly has a unique scent.

This one actually didn't smell too bad today, although I gather it was more intense the previous night. It'll be gone tomorrow - so I definitely was excited to get a look at it today. The last time this one (at UW) flowered was 2003.

Appropriate Placement?



When painting with an airless sprayer, proper protection is necessary.
Sometimes, that protection can be useful in other places too.
