Perry the Corpse Flower Full Bloom Cycle 2016
Time lapse video of Perry T. Titan ( Titan Arum A.K.A Corpse Flower ) growing in the green house at Gustavus Adolphus College between May 14, and June 9, 2016. This video shows Perry just after it begins to grow from the corm all the way until the spadix collapses.
See gustavus.edu/perry for more information about this amazing plant.

Bluatruli Well, it is a LIVE being. If you have house plants, you can see the progression when it grows. You get pride and joy in having a hand in taking care of it

Try searching "vines timelapse" videos and watch horrified how the plant almost seems sentient as it tries to feel around and grip against the closest anything it can find. It's the reality that hits you that plants just don't grow and sway in the wind, but are secretly plotting to find the nearest living thing it can find and kill it, but is/are far too slow to act on their bloodlust

If your plant has an erection that last for more than four days consult a horticulturalist.

So neat! Gustavus college thanks for sharing and nice to see not much changes from 2013-2016!
I really do appreciate the people who took care of Perry for so long. Like imagine saying “hey can we take on the project of the corpse flower and take care of it for a decade so we can watch it bloom for one day.” Totally worth it, but there could have been people who got new jobs and moved on in that time. It reminds me of the avocado tender who gets asked “why do you plant them if you’ll never see them bare fruit?”. Really cool to see and thanks for sharing it on the internet for the rest of us to enjoy.
is it normal that this time the flower was way smaller? or did you try something regarding nutrition etc

Love the ambient music, on point. Gave me more shivers than the waltz, somehow the waltz was too human. This is more.. magical curiosity.
I like big buds and I can not lie. Keep all the ones with the itty bitty size.

Perry is absolutely amazing. What ever came about the viable seeds from self pollination? Were those planted? Could we be seeing little Perrys in the future?

Perry is magnificent. Thank you for sharing!
The corpse flower is an interesting read if you ever have the time....however it only keeps on reminding me of what I learned about human physiology ( I trust your imagination on this).
We love you Perry!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Another great video on this giant flower bloom.
Me: Is that a corpse flower? Plant: *puts fedora on its head* Me: PERRY THE CORPSE FLOWER?!?!
This is some dedication considering how often these bloom.
Wicked time lapse... love it 👍
Reminds me of Dennis the Menace. Mr. Wilson’s plant blossoming at full moon until Dennis ruins it.

It’s absolutely fascinating I love it
Ever again amazing how something of higher order like this is created that quickly just by the provided nutrients of the soil, water, CO2 and sunlight...
I bet it smelled utterly delightful
AWWWWWWWWWW..............WHAT A CUTIE!!! LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT PERRY!
Those are the grossest but most fascinating plants.
That was majestic
Perry's official name means "giant misshapen penis." Just in case you were wondering why scientific literature doesn't translate the species names out of Latin. 🤓 Very pretty organism for such a name though.

Very neat!
yay he's back
Would love to see a video on how it dies and goes back to that little bud form or if the staff have to pry the new growth off and resubmerge the plant back deeper into the soil. Also what requirements are needed for the plant to enjoy a few more years of peaceful rest with the proper nutrients!
beautiful
When it blooms does it produce some roots? I have a few smaller species that will grow roots when the flower grows, like paeoniifolius.
Oh Perry will i see you again this year?
Ok, you guys need a better spot for this plant. The public needs to see this in person like a botanical garden. If they see it, they will be more amazed and have better respect for nature.
It's like a whale giving a time in open air.. glancing, proud...reaching some sky.. Getting down..dying. but accepting . Being a piece of what ever..a little part..humans to see or captured..
Welcome back Perry
I thought these plants were monocarpic! So the plant survived and is still going to flower? That is so cool!
Did you cut the flower from 2013?
I watched perry´s 2013 video, and now this one, and it really makes me wonder: it´s a huge plant - at least in size - but it grows fine in a vase. I wonder what weight it reaches and how much nutrients it consumes - I mean, how much biomass it generates and etc, because it seems impossible to make it in a vase. You need a lot of fertilizer and water to grow the same biomass of potatoes or pumpkin, don´t you? Anyway, I would really like to know how long the footage took and an estimate of the weight of the plant. Thank you very much, it was a wonderful video, again!
Is that the BDR16 Growth Chambers in the background?
Perry is so very pretty!
Magnificent.
So beautiful ,
Are you posting another one in 2020 this year?
How are the " old leaves" beside it also moving and reacting similarly
So, is the the same plant over and over? I was just wondering. It's so spectacular and I didn't know if it the same plant over and over. Does everything have to be cleared away (the leaves, the part that falls) and there's just another one under there somewhere? So many questions.
What is the name of the song? You should add it to the description.
When you see all the people gather around it are they trying to harvest the plant?
What do you do with the plant once it falls?
Is that a second titan arum specimen next to it?
Perry gonna bloom this year?
Is that rot on the floor or shadow? Is that rot from the stench???
Did you pollinate it.
What do you guys do with it?
Wow must get a lot of care
what does the fruit look like?
Is perry doing ok in the pandemic?
Did it die or just collapse???
Why does it collapse?
I don't understand, I watched the 2013 one, what happened to all the plant matter that just fell over? At the start of this video, it's just that little stem in there. What happened? And is it still the same plant still alive the whole time or is it a cutting or something?
Is it possible to explain the smell?
I would like to know the shutter rate. Please.
Is this the same one that bloomed in 2013, grown by seed, how big is the seed?
Why do the petals open and close like that?
does it keep reflowering every so many years rather than dying off and then its permanently dies?
Watching a plant productively develop and grow sorta makes you question why you exactly are procrastinating at this moment---
Is this the same perry from 2013???
How much time it stands.?
sorry to ask but its the same seed?
One question I have is did it take 7 to ten years for it to bloom.
I think the petal goes open and close again for five times on the first bloom, but why is it just once on the second bloom?
See you soon Perry
Did you pollinate the flower and get some seeds for propagation, or will you this year?
@gustavusadolphuscollege

During a previous bloom we did pollinate Perry and collect seeds. There are now quite a few of Perry's children growing in green houses around the country.
Wait so it's the same plant? I assume the root ball survives and the plant just grows again?
When my boy perry gonna bloom again?
Nobody: Me: Ah shit here we go again.
Hopefully Perry will become much taller in lengths and size!
Aw man, is dead perry still there next to alive perry? That’s kinda cool actually
Cool...
Go perry!
I wonder if the ladder will still be there in the next cycle.

Yes, Perry has been pollinated in the past and it did create fruit/seeds which have been planted and some of them are growing somewhat large already.
PLEASE, I NEED TO KNOW IF PERRY FLOWERED AGAIN IN 2019
