Popping up on my FYP, all three meters of her, was Putricia the Corpse Flower, the Botanic Gardens of Sydney’s Araceae It girl.

Visitors gathered in Sydney to witness the blooming of a rare flower known as the "corpse flower," which opens for just 24 hours, once every few years.

For the first time in 15 years, Putricia - the corpse flower with a vomit-smelling perfume - will flower for only about 24 hours before it withers and dies. Join us for rolling coverage of this long-awaited event.
