Absolutely stunning. The largest flower in the world is a variety of voodoo lily (titan arum,) and that's what these pics are. They get as tall as 12ft. Prehistoric, if you will. Another trait that makes these way cool is in full bloom, it releases the stench of rotting meat / flesh that attracts flies. The smell lasts no more than 24 hours though. Full bloom - no more than 3 hours.

Apparently they smell real real bad.
