View Resource Titan Arum: the Biggest 'Flower' in the World

This spectacular and putrid smelling plant at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, burst into flower earlier this month. This Web site includes a sequence of photos as the inflorescence grows from 350 millimeters to its mature height of over 2 meters. By visiting the site, users can also learn about the plant, its giant leaf and flower, and how it is pollinated.
