It's a very unusual flowering plant that I heard about years ago. The titan arum is also known as the 'corpse flower' because of its odor, which has been compared to that of rotting flesh. The flower is huge, sometimes reaching as much as ten feet in circumference.

Here are some photos of the titan arum in various stages of maturity.

And here is a link to the wiki information about this fascinating plant.
