Arum Titan, the largest flower on the planet sent on August 26, 2022 (11:51) by EnricoGiuliani. 27 comments, 304 views. [retina]

at 32mm, 1/60 f/11.0, ISO 100, hand held.

L'Arum Titano del Botanic Gardens di Melbourne ha attirato migliaia di persone, me compreso, che sono state in coda per ore per vedere questo incredibile fiore. Scoperto nel 1878 dal botanico italiano Odoardo Beccari, è originario di Sumatra ed è una autentica rarità: alto circa tre metri, il corno centrale pesa mediamente dai 50 ai 90 kg; il record di peso è detenuto da un corno coltivato presso il Royal Botanic Garden di Edimburgo, che pesava 153,9 chilogrammi. Emana un odore nauseabondo di carne in putrefazione simile all'odore di un cadavere o di una carcassa in decomposizione per attirare mosche e scarabei utili per l'impollinazione; vive al massimo 72 ore. Dalla scoperta del 1878, si ha notizia certa soltanto di sette (!) fioriture in tutto il mondo ...

What a show Enrico!
I'm sorry to read that it gives off an unpleasant smell, from such a beautiful flower I would have expected an equally good smell! :-D
