Scarlet, as the flower is named, last bloomed in the conservatory in 2019 and its imminent blossoming is drawing throngs of people
A rare flower with a smell that has been compared to rotting flesh and described as “worse than one thousand pukes” is bringing hundreds of spectators to San Francisco’s Golden Gate park.
The city’s Conservatory of Flowers announced on Tuesday that the plant, known as a corpse flower, was on the verge of blooming, a special event that is expected to last only a few days.
