Titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum) at Kew Gardens
http://www.kew.org/plants-fungi/Amorphophallus-titanum.htm
One of the most spectacular plants to be found in the wet tropics zone of Kew Gardens' Princess of Wales Conservatory is the titan arum.
With its huge flowering structure (inflorescence) rising over 2.5m above the ground and its single immense leaf, it certainly is a giant among plants, as its name suggests.
Coupled with its characteristic foul stench, and the rarity of flowerings, this plant has always hit the headlines.

What does it look like after it blooms? Is it limp and dead or does it just close up?

Amazing, Kew seems to amaze me everyday, and I have never visited :S
Hopefully I can come down and see Kew, Wakehurst, London Zoo & The Natural History Museum.
(Although Ive already seen ZSL London 7 the Natural History Museum)
