    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

    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.

    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!
