the Corpse Flower...


 
stop and smell the…
 
 
no, you might want to think twice on that with this bloom!
 
 
The Corpse Flower blooms once about every 10-years
 
 
a bloom can grow up to 10-ft tall—this one is about 4-ft-8-in
 
 
the bloom lasts only 24-48 hours
and the smell lives up to the name—gag
 

 
 


 

 
this bloom has been dubbed Romero after the filmmaker George A. Romero who filmed the cult classic Night of the Living Dead here in Pittsburgh back in 1968
 
Romero stopped in to see his namesake bloom Romero
