Corpse Flower

This fascinating flower is found mainly in low lying tropical rainforests of Indonesia. This is one of the worlds rarest, most endangered and largest flowers and it can reach a total width of over a meter. The Rafflesias survival is totally dependent on a specific vine called the Tetrastigma vine. As the Rafflesia is a bodiless, stemless, leafless, rootless parasite, it requires the vine for nourishment and support. It is also a carrion plant, which means that it releases a pungent rotten flesh smell when in bloom to attract flies and carrion beetles to aid in pollination. Once in bloom, the flower will only last about a week before dying.
