Stinkorama! Blooming 'corpse flowers' Seymour and Audrey smell up the joint


Amorphophallus titanum, one of the biggest flowers in the world with the worst stench ever, is causing flies and tourists to swarm around a botanical garden in Florida.

The blossoming of twin “corpse” flowers, whose towering, phallic-shaped blooms reek of rotten flesh, is drawing tourists like flies to what experts are calling a lunar eclipse of the botany world. It's unusual to see one of these endangered titans bloom in its native Indonesia, much less in captivity, and two are putting on a malodorous show within days of each other at Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, Florida.
