Close up on blooming corpse flower interior

Corpse Flower

Two Amorphophallus titanum plants are expected to bloom soon at the Garden!

Commonly known as a titan arum or “corpse flower,” this fast-growing plant is known for the intense, foul odor that accompanies its bloom, often lasting just 24 hours or less. 

The first corpse flower bloom is expected to take place sometime near the end of July, with the second expected approximately one week later.
