@sebastian @plants please do! We have a Discord group "we watch the flower", made when #Putricia bloomed. Since she's busy making fruits now, we seek new blooms to watch!

Not #putricia, but her sister/brother @ #Copenhagen #BotanicalGardens

#Amorphophallus titanum ,
the #CorpseFlower ,
awakes for a new cycle.

So I think I reached some sort of limit with the insta import, it just won't do it any more. The 'help' button goes to a broken page, keeping insta for now, I suppose. Want to work out how to poison the well, maybe should have done that before uploading.

ANYWAY this is the corpse flower that bloomed at the Australian National Botanic Gardens #ANBG in Feb 2025. It's no #Putricia but still stunning
