Corpse flower blooms at Colorado State University

Ойын-сауық

A stinky flower in Colorado bloomed for the first time in its life.
After seven years of care at the College of Agricultural Sciences’ Conservatory at Colorado State University, a rare corpse flower bloomed Saturday on Memorial Day weekend.
The corpse flower, or Amorphophallus titanum, was brought to the Fort Collins campus during a plant swap and named Cosmo in 2016.
University officials said the plant, which can grow up to 8 feet tall, releases a corpse-like smell during bloom. The smell aims to lure pollinators like carrion beetles and flies. The stinky flowers are at the base of the plant.
