    @JeremyMedicina 6 лет назад +1717

    This plant has one of the oddest life cycles. It grows into a tree that is actually just a single leaf. Then it withers down to a single flower which all takes an average of 7-10 years to bloom. Then it blooms for only 24-36 hours. You can actually see the next one growing in the background. It looks like a green tree.

    * They open once every decade, and last only one day, on full bloom.
    * Its called a flower but what you saw in the video is not, its down there
    * theres 28 species but this one is the biggest
    * in my opinion, rafflesia arnoldii is the prettiest

    I'm about a 3rd into the video and I started laughing so hard. My brain connected the name of the flower and the music. This calming flowing piece of the Nutcracker, and then the Corpse flower. Also realized while typing this the name of the piece is Waltz of the Flowers.. and it's a flower... very clever

    Woah! That is wild seeing it’s petals open and close in this time lapse. It looked like it was embracing itself or doing a theatrical dance - a butterfly emerging from its caccoon. And the climactic ending of it withering, almost collapsing in utter defeat. Wow! Better than opera!!! 🎭

      Late reply but you confused with *raflesia alnordii* which can only live in their environment & cant be planted to another place (similar to pochini / pine mushroom) coz it has "network" root connected together
      Flower in this video called *titan arum* & can be grown anywhere as long as new place meet required environment (tropical weather condition). Many american garden grow this flower inside greenhouse with controlled weather condition
