Glad this isn't my wedding!

Just read this today on MSN.  Glad I don't have to worry about this.

What would you do if the corpse flower sprouted at your wedding venue?

I think I'd wear one of those dangly trees for the car in my cleavage so it might at least make my general vicinity less rank.

Yuck. Kind of a cool story, though!

It's cool to have such a rare flower I guess, but I don't think I would be too keen on sharing the spotlight with a flower that smells like a dead body.

Interesting...  6" tall??  That's one massive flower!

This kind of grosses me out!

That would suck.  I guess maybe I'd switch to scented candles lining the aisle  or spray some Febreze on it?!  lol

We had this same flower bloom 2 floors down from where I work (at an attached teaching greenhouse) I walk by it everyday while it was ready to bloom and when blooming, from 10-15 feet away, you can not smell anything. Perhaps at the peak and when you go too close to it, it does stink. Not sure if that was typical for this flower. We took pictures right next to it in bloom.

Stinking up the whole museum is an extreme exaggeration.
