The interior of a purple Stapelia leendertziae flower, also known as a carrion flower. The yellow and black star-shaped center of the flower is on the upper left. The greenish-yellow fly who was pollinating it is in the lower right
Who's visiting my Carrion Plant?
#Stapelia & other species have stunning flowers that emit the odor of rotting meat. This attracts flies, instead of bees, as pollinators.
This fly was quick & hard to capture with a phone
