But before you think about getting one for your special someone, there are a few thingsyou should know. First of all theTitan Arum‘s flowering stalk reaches a height of 3 meters and has a diameter of over a meter, so it’s going to be pretty hard to carry. And second of all and, most importantly, it reeks like a decomposing dead body…that’s why it’s sometimes known as “the corpse flower”
It’s native to the rainforests of centralSumatra,Indonesiaand it rarely blooms in captivity, so when that actually happens it’s apretty big deal. Haven’t seen one up close yet, but considering the smell, I consider myself lucky

This is really amazing.

Is that d same species?
