They're Coming for You, Barbara

We had another Corpse Flower bloom at Phipps! The Corpse Flower blooms only every 7-10 years, and we have been lucky enough in Pittsburgh to have had 2 corpse flower blooms in the past few years! This is Barbara (named for the main character in Night of the Living Dead), and the previous one was named Romero. It smells TERRIBLE for about 12 hours when it blooms. So fascinating!
