    To add to the charm, the bloom emits a pungent smell comparable to a corpse or rotting meat. It can also warm up to approximately 98 degrees Fahrenheit to further fool insects. Video source here:

    The titan arum, native to Sumatra, produces the world's largest flower every decade. Here's a time lapse of one of these rare blooms at . The seemingly grand scientific name of the plant — Amorphophallus titanum — actually just means "misshapen, giant phallus".
