The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh’s Amorphophallus titanum (titan arum), one of the world’s biggest and smelliest blooms, came into flower on Sunday. The Garden stayed open late into the evening to give curious visitors the chance to see, and smell, the plant in all its pungent glory!
Good morning! Isn't it a bit of a dreich one? My smell level is low-moderate so if you've a weaker constitution now is the time to come and see my magnificence! My glasshouse is open from 10am today, and my #TitanArmy are ready and waiting for you all.#NewReekie #stinkyplants pic.twitter.com/jsbrvoNxOr
