We saw the corpse flower today! Complete lucky accident. I booked Amazon Spheres tickets 15 days ago not knowing the corpse flower was about bloom.
The corpse flower blooms only once every 5-10 years, and only for 48 hours. It's called the corpse flower because it smells like rotting flesh. If you've never smelled rotting flesh, it smells like a combination of hot compost, feet and feces. Yum.
