Rafflesia arnoldii is a member of the genus Rafflesia. It is noted for producing the largest individual flower on earth. It has a very strong and horrible odor of decaying flesh, earning it the nickname “corpse flower”. It is endemic to the rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra.
This is actually really cool. Plants like this smell like decaying animals because they rely on flies for pollination.
reminds me of those story books where they went on adventures and you had to find things, i’m sure they had these flowers in a few of them
Vileplume
Considering her Japanese name is ラフレシア Ruffresia, yes. This is what Vileplume is based on, exactly.
