A corpse flower wilting after having bloomed
Sign from the Australian National Botanic Gardens: Discover the corpse flower (exit this way)
I missed #putricia the #corpseflower because it was just to damn hot to wait in line, but it's a showery day in Canberra so I saw this gently wilting babe after a lovely cool walk through the National Botanic Gardens. So flippin beautiful
Blessed be the bloom
#putricia yesterday
I couldn't get a clear screenshot last night but at the end, in a nod to all the chatter, Bridget got up on what the chat called the Ladder of Science one last time and held up a bit of paper onto which she had written SCIENTIST, NOT A SACRIFICE.
Full marks to the RBGS team. #Putricia #Sydney

Such a wholesome chat at #Putricia Royal Botanic Gardens YT livestream.
Royal Botanic Gardens YouTube account assures those watching the Putricia livestream that Bridget is not the human sacrifice.
Props to the social media/ YT team at the Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney for answering the important questions. #Putricia
The Botanic Gardens decided to get in on the Spotify soundtrack thing (someone created their own) so here is the 'official' #Putricia playlist.

LOL - "She gets preggo then disappears for a decade which is very understandable" #Putricia #Sydney
Caught the very end of this epic event I didn’t even realise was happening. Maybe I’ll be lucky enough to catch the next bloom #putricia

Botanic Gardens Sydney YouTube livestream of Putricia the corpse flower and the chat. Just checked in on the #Putricia livestream - the chat ppl doing a 'signal' thing when they're actually there as a hello for their fellow chat members continues in the form of a ticker with the acronyms (BBTB = Blessed Be The Bloom and WWTF = We Watch The Flower)
Just checked in on the #Putricia livestream - the chat ppl doing a 'signal' thing when they're inside as a hello to their fellow chat members continues in the form of scrolling text on their phone with the acronyms (BBTB = Blessed Be The Bloom and WWTF = We Watch The Flower)
Screenshot of the Botanic Gardens of Sydney livestream of the bloomed corpse flower lovingly named, "Putricia". The giant plant is slightly off centre and its spadix (the giant phallic part) is wilting. It is surrounded with other plants. A black curtain is behind the garden to cover the greenhouse.
#Putricia isn't getting the love she deserves :( no moo deng level attention on her
Went to see Putricia at the Sydney Botantic Gardens! Putricia is a very rare corpse flower (Amorphophallus titanum). She smelled like an undergrad zoology class, where I had to dissect roadkill. Very stinky! #botany #science #plants #Putricia #corpseflower
Botanic Gardens Sydney YouTube livestream screenshot of Putrucia the corpse flower with notice that there is no longer any scent because she has exited the female stage of her life cycle.
Sydney - there's no more #Putricia scent. She's full-on Mary Floppins now. See Botanic Gardens notice in screenshot.

Botanic Gdns Sydney YouTube channel livestream about Putricia the corpse flower - chat entry from Hasan Khan - "I thought the name Putricia came from the names Putri + Patricia, it turns out putrid and patricia. In Indonesia putri means princess. There is also an artist named Putri Patricia".
This works as well. #Putricia
Putricia now has a new (chat) name, due to her cycle/ spadix stage - Mary Floppins. #corpseflower #Putricia #Sydney
Two ladies in Putricia hats - screenshot from the Botanic Gardens Sydney YouTube livestream of the corpse flower, whose flower has been fading all day.
Just went to check the livestream and there's #Putricia hats. Or as someone in the chat called it, Putricia cosplay.
Current queue time is 1.5 hours.

Putricia, Sydney's botanical wonder: The rare corpse flower blooms! 🌸
#CorpseFlower #SydneyBotanicGarden #Putricia #RareBloom
Putricia is tired now, but she is still the Queen! Thanks to Botanic Gardens Sydney for inspiration to slow down, centre myself, appreciate nature, and be in the moment. #AnxietyBuster #Putricia #WWTF
I forgot to mention last night that the livestream chat informed me that there's a Discord and Spotify list devoted to #Putricia the #corpseflower.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=mryl...
I lined up for over two hours last night to see #putricia.
Was she really that stinky? Honestly… not really. Somehow familiar and sweeter than I expected. Kinda Parmesan-y, with a side of fruit that’s been left inside a hot car.
Was it worth it?
Yes, of course ☺️
