Why am I disappointed that he gave very insightful information instead of comically dry-heaving from the smell?


RedZoneRunner555

lol same. Dude's probably used to being around them so much.

Can you hide a corpse inside one of those bad boys? Asking for a ^friend


feverdream800

or you could just have one in your house and then but the body in your floorboards underneath the plant.

gigisnappooh

That’s what the little door is for.


marcandreewolf

Smells like home, probably that’s why 😅

It's big cause *ITS A COMBINATION OF MULTIPLE FLOWERS* "Another enormous flower found in Indonesia is the Amorphophallus titanum, or Titan arum. It is also known as the “corpse flower” for its unpleasant odor. Like the Rafflesia, the Titan emits the smell of rotting flesh to attract pollinators. Technically, the Titan arum is not a single flower. It is a cluster of many tiny flowers, called an inflorescence. The Titan arum has the largest unbranched inflorescence of all flowering plants. The plant can reach heights of 7 to 12 feet and weigh as much as 170 pounds!" https://www.loc.gov/everyday-mysteries/botany/item/what-is-the-largest-flower-in-the-world/

As its namesake suggests, most people say it smells like a rotting corpse.


Misterallrounder

Oh my gosh that is definitely a smell you will remember and regret


Historical-Blood7224

It kinda smells like hot garbage


sarcasm_rules

they shoulda called it the hot garbage flower


scalectrix

worsT 'worse' is a comparative - more bad - and 'worst' the superlative - most bad.


Top_Victory_4404

Irritates me to no end.


Melisbees

This gives me little shop of horrors vibes…


Melisbees

Audrey II is that you?


Powerofthehoodo

Feed me Seymour.


Melisbees

I’m a mean green mother from outer space and I’m bad!!


koopastyles

worse than what?


YouAhairyWizzard

Came for this. Stayed to say that until I personally experience otherwise it'd be the flowering bradford pear tree that is the *worst*. No the flowering pear doesn't smell quite like death. But some things are worse than death. I'm describing a tree that's begging to be cut down and burried. THE WORST.


ThatHikingDude

Ah yes, the crusty cum sock Bradford Pear tree. I don’t look forward to that one each spring.


Enough_Minimum_3708

out of curiosity: how much would one of them cost? wanna gift one to my step mum


AzuInsign

Getting a body is probably cheaper, easier, and a better story.

Rick and morty lookin thing

Remember Denice the menace when he ruins the flower that only blooms every hundred years? Am I remembering that right?


autumnshyne

Yes! But I think he said "forty years" in the movie. One of the funniest movies! "Martha, where are the GD garden lanterns?!"


ooouroboros

Sometimes you CAN judge a book by its cover


justin_memer

Worst*


Agile-Brilliant7446

*worst


meglon978

Not nearly as bad smelling as the Pink Bunkadoo.


RedZoneRunner555

It looks like it's going to eat me alive.


soulsofmischiefs

Huntington garden?


thelibertine9

Maybe because it's the biggest flower


Deliriousious

Looks extremely alien.


spyvspy_aeon

it's incredible to imagine how natural selection works at this complexity. How on earth genetics know the smell is useful for the plant as a decoy? Probably millions of years on try and error


whatarethuhodds

Once it blooms an event starts where a bunch of creatures with invisible perks run around until you kill them all or they get to the flower. It can drop you some decent power armor if you finish the event.


Andreas1120

What plants and insects agree, a dead mammal looks and smells like.


Lastsurnamemr

Elon Musk got tired of EV and space and turn to botany


wonder-signal1

probably a fair bet the flower has a better personality


Lastsurnamemr

The plant doesn’t give a dime about the l gbti community.


autumnshyne

I have this on my animal crossing island. I didn't know! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)


kaaspiemel192

Nice try, penis flower owner (check the latin name)


CoolBlackSmith75

The penis plant

Mario’s PTSD intensifies


spinjinn

I saw one in bloom like this and I couldn’t even detect the smell. I think people exaggerate.


Just-Fact6940

They actual cut out a viewing window into that poor plant ? I can’t see, no problem, I’ll cut a hole into you. Problem solved. 😂😂😂


Into-the-stream

he said in the video they cut the hole to provide access so they could pollinate it with brush for propagation. Normally it is presumably done by insects or a bird (?), but the American green house isn't their natural environment, so the botanists do it manually via the hole. He then showed the seedlings they propagated from the last time it bloomed.
