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.
