Weird Giant Flower from Malaysia!

Check out this weird Malaysian flower that gives off odor of “dead people”.

Often called a “corpse flower,” the odor of this monstrous blossom is notoriously
unpleasant, imitating the decaying flesh of a dead animal. Its hairy, leathery texture and
reddish coloration contribute to this illusion, attracting flies and other scavengers for
pollination. It is not known exactly how its seeds reach other Tetrastigma, but may stick to
the fur of passing rodents. Only one will be produced from each flower.
