I actually really liked seeing the movement of the other plants around it too.
Hello:)
Yes me to they are living plants
The blooming of this flower is amazing but what I saw the rest of the plants doing was incredible, they move, they clearly show they are alive and growing. I loved to see these beautiful live greenery moving gracefully. Nature is amazing.
Question. We’re the rest of the plants moving away or towards the cadaver flower?
I'm mainly here because I was too impatient to wait for the one at the Tucson Botanical Gardens to bloom.
Curke Bhris same lmao 😂
sammmme hahahahah
Curke Bhris Lol me 2
Yes!
literally me
I watched the 1993 film Dennis the Menace today and there's a scene with a flower that takes 40 years to grow before dying. I was curious about if it was based on a real fact and I've now found this amazing video. Seeing it die off after opening for only 24 hours made me a little sad. Beautiful stuff.
Omg I saw that movie too and wondered the same wow
But didn't the flower die because Dennis was yelling (for a good reason of course) as the plant was sensitive to loud noise during the blooming stage?
@@okamijubeiwhy washe yelling?
Absolutely amazing! Beautiful. Did anyone else feel sad when it began to die?
Yes! This is why I secretly hate it when people buy me flowers, haha!
Yes
it's not dying! it's only dormant!! and it's going bloom again in 3 to 10 years :)
It didn't die
It's a corpse flower
Yessss
I have seen and smelled this plant at a former neighbor's house. It smells like a rotting corpse. It is a tall plant. I believe it is dormant for seven years or so then blooms. Seeing this plant one time is more than enough.
I loved seeing the leaves of the plant to the top left corner opening up and closing every 24 hours. Speeding it up it kinda looks like breathing - lungs expanding and shrinking. Nature is beautiful in how you can see the same patterns repeated in everything, including us humans!
The lighting in this looks absolutely beautiful
Thanks! Glad you like it!
nordhorny Very interesting. 👌🏻
chicagobotanicgarden that was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, wish I could have been there
I agree
lol I love how it has its own Nautica umbrella, classy.
Can't stop watching it. Is like a reflection of life, we bloom and then... all falls. Makes me think.
BARROCO TAROT
About average as far as the vid clip goes, right? Going erect and turgid to spent, bent and limp in a little over 2 minutes. Yep, Joe Q Public must feel this video deep. 😂
BARROCO TAROT this thing gives me the heeby jeebies.
It's not a reflection, what you're watching is life. Birth and death, that's as real as it gets.
More like a dick more than anything. (*insert canned laughter*)
Yeah! I thought about it too. Its like the cycle of life
This flower is at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania. It just bloomed and is now closing up. We were told it came from the Chicago Botanic Garden. Fantastic
Bring it back, NOW!
in Indonesia it is called Bunga Bangkai because of its smell. it is native to Sumatra, Indonesia. it is also founded in Java Island, Indonesia. it usually grows around house.
I assume they cut it down over there coz it stinks. and in Chicago it's a botanical fiesta.
Miguel Ramirez bangkai is indonesian word for corpse. and bunga means flower in bahasa.
it is also a 'botanical fiesta' here in bogor botanical garden, west java when this flower blooms.. people can get jailed here for cutting down this flower lol.. we can only find it like once in 5 years..
Wow! I really want to visit Indonesia one day
How long did this filmed one live?
Absolutely BREATHTAKING!
LITERALLY!
What a terrific reward for such a long waiting period. Maybe one day I can get to see one up close, not just in video. BUT. . . I really do appreciate the cool video people. Thank Y’all!
This reminds me of my friend Morgan.
The best things in life captivate you for unknown reasons. If you can identify that feeling & be in tune long enough, you’ll see what it’s about.
I tend to borrow concepts from nature and this is such a beautiful video.

One bloomed in Adelaide South Australia today. Apparently they’re collecting so many, they’ll have a corpse flower blooming every year soon. The city has been working really hard to put its name on the map.
Yea. It’ll put its name on the map as “Stinky town”. 😂🤣🤣
love seeing the leaves of the other plants move over time
It’s so amazing to see life changing before your eyes
Come watch me gain weight daily under COVID-19 isolation.
@@skyelark5511 ight bet
@@monkeydo992 lolol
Never been near this flower but I look forward to it. A beautiful exception to most flowers of nature.
Somewhere on earth on a island there are millions of these things blooming! lol
That must be one smelly island.

These 'things' are rare even in their place of origin (Indonesia)

magnificent even at death.This was epic thank you
One of these is going to bloom soon close to where I live. I hope it'll be at least a little open when I go. (which is...VERY soon).
That's beautiful but I was wanting it to open more.
A proud feeling for the botanist who... had a research on this....
It took a bow. What a class act.
Must be the only flower in the world that you cannot put is a vase.... nature without limits... only a supreme being could create such a mysterious plant
Corpse flower is stinky good fun! It gets an umbrella!
she blooms short because there is not enaugh food..she want to move but she can't,but this is so beautiful you people did a verry good job but i don't think she is a motherplant from a seed pot but verry good job thank you people for knowing that mother nature is verry special and we can't just let things go to waste...and thank you usa for saving this flower when there where only 2 left in the whole world thank you so much...
Beautiful garden
I love chicago
It takes 7 to 10 years to bloom and the aroma you can smell it from a mile
I watched it 3 times ! Awesome ! 👍
I love time lapse
" ... all plants and all trees describe their Maker with numerous tongues in such a way that they leave those who study them in amazement, causing them to exclaim: "Glory be to God! How wonderfully they bear witness to Him!"
Yes, the glorification of plants at the time their flowers open, and the moment they produce new shoots, and when they offer their smiling words is as beautiful and clear as themselves. For through the beautiful mouth of each flower and the tongues of its orderly shoots and the words of its well-measured seeds, the order demonstrates wisdom and is observedly within a balance which demonstrates knowledge. And the balance is within an embroidery of art which demonstrates skill and craft. And the embroidery of art is within an adornment which demonstrates favour and munificence. And the adornment is within subtle scents which demonstrate mercy and bestowal. And these meaningful qualities one within the other form such a tongue of testimony that it both describes the All-Beauteous Maker through His Names, and portrays Him through His attributes, and expounds the manifestation of His Names, and expresses His making Himself loved and known. "
Risale-i Nur Collection
"So observe the effects of the mercy of Allah - how He gives life to the earth after its lifelessness. Indeed, that [same one] will give life to the dead, and He is over all things competent."
Qur'an 30:50
You will not disappear.
You will not rot under the ground
Who created you from nothing;
He will give body and life again.
Infinite and will have a life worthy of human beings.
Death will be the beginning of eternal life.

That place is fun to visit it’s just kinda warm inside
that was spectacular I love Mother Nature
We had one here in Tucson was pretty cool to see
This is my old history, my fraternal g-parents raised me from 3 months up, I went to Galveston when I was 12 and damn if my birth mom had one of these plants, she took care of it like a baby, DAMN I hated that plant for taking so much of my mother, she wasn’t around to see her children, but she adored this plant!!!!! I grew up to realize it was her loss, not mine!
They are very strange plants and very lovely.
Is this a public domain video? So beautiful!!!
You dont wanna come close to one, they stanky
thank you
With the way these things have been described to smell, I wouldn’t want to be ten feet within this thing let alone walking past it
Glorious! Thank you
We watched this at school, and I wanted to see this video again
Thx 4 the video

Hi:)
Recycling Tricks Idea hello
WOW!!! MUCHAS GRACIAS POR CUIDAR Y REGALARNOS ESTE ESPECTÁCULO TAN INCREÍBLE E IMPRESIONANTE!!!
OJALÁ ENTENDAMOS QUE NO SOMOS NADA SIN ESTOS SERES VIVOS!!!
It didn't open all the way. I went to see the one at Gustavus Adolphus College in my home town and it fully bloomed.
Nice Flower in the world
Actually got to see and smell it in person when I lived in Chicago hehe
Thanks
سبحان الخالق وكأنها تذكر الانسان بدورة حياته فهو إن فرح لا يكاد يفرح إلا قليلاً ثم ما يلبث إلا أن يموت
Love this!
like the song
so cool
Incredible how many people came to see it
Maravilloso....gracias por subir un video tan asombroso
Que bueno que te gusta el video!
awesome
Look at that Queen.
Tragic and beautiful.
Why the little rectagular cutouts in the base of the flower?
The cutouts were made so we could pollinate the flowers at the base of the plant. See this blog post for further explanation. my.chicagobotanic.org/community-gardening/whats-so-powerful-about-a-powerfully-bad-smell/
A question regarding the plants in the background: Some of them seem to go limp at night and the the leaves fan back out around sunrise. I know a fair bit about what's going on inside the leaf cells around sunrise, but I've never heard anything about leaves that droop at night. What's going on with that?
It’s like, it bloomed. Seen the world around it - the hoards of people, the noise - and said forget it. I’d rather die.
Is this video covering from Sep '15 through Jan '16 or how many days of blooming period is this video covering??! and it is amazing videographic masterful work!!
Just so we're clear, thats not how its supposed to bloom. The whole thing is supposed to open then close. The middle falling over like that is probably a failing health sign. Which is why the video doesn't show anymore.
Ikr i thought the upper part to open too
I'm just curious what the umbrella was for ? Also, I like the large round globe light in the background. It looks like a full moon rising. That's a nice touch in the night time video of this plant blooming.
The umbrella was to protect the plant from the sun. These plants grow natively in the understory of trees in a tropical forest.
Ok. Thanks for answering. I thought that was what it was for but wasn't sure. Didn't think about it growing in a dense tropical area and not being in direct sunlight. It would probably get sunburned quite easily if in full sun. BTW, I came here because the weather channel is live on FB with a Corpse flower blooming and was curious about where it was from. Found that answer on UA-cam: Indonesia. Quite a few years ago (maybe 5 or 6 ?) they had one blooming on display at the Laconia, NH fire department that a local doctor grew and shared with the public when it bloomed.
