An incredibly large flower with the pistol almost looking like a flower within a large vase. The "vase" is different shades of green and has a ruffled, sculpted purple edge. The largest flower in the world..And maybe the stinkiest... "It smells like 2 week old road kill in August, pretty flower though! You could smell it before you saw it!" #JBCFlowers @johnbcaddell.bsky.social

Came home to find out that my carrion flower has finally bloomed! Yay! #plantsky #stapeliagigantea

A large, white flower with many narrow petals and a pink/yellow center. The background is out of focus.

A succulent with tall, narrow, four-lobed segments and a large bud about to bloom.

My night-blooming cereus bloomed! I think it will be another day or two before the carrion plant blooms, but it looks like it’s going to be enormous! #plantsky #stapeliagigantea #queenofthenight
