Came here when the Sydney Botanical gardens corpse flower was flowering in January 2025. Her name is Purtricia! :) Thank you for a terrific and informative video!
Just saw our first corpse flower at Longwood gardens in Pennsylvania. The smell wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but definitely smelled rotting flesh. The workers explained pollination and today there was square cut in the flower for the pollination process. It was fascinating. Now I'm watching you and learning a little more about it.
Bee Bob yes I think you get used to the smell. What smells worse are many Bulbophyllum orchids! Longwood gardens is one of the nicest gardens I’ve ever been to. Glad you could experience it!
@@OrchidWebTV Been a member for years. Their orchids are fantastic. I was able to see them as corona shut things down. Oh, I've found many Lilies to be more offensive odor wise. Some of those really stink.
Our house in west Los Angeles was on property that used to belong to a grower of some sort and a number of decades ago a ‘volunteer’ corpse flower appeared and bloomed in our garden!
How long after you plant the corm, will you see any growth?? Was just given two, about the size of a silver dollar. I've been wanting to grow one of these beautiful monsters for years!!!!
We will sell the seedlings when they germinate, which should start late summer or fall of 2020. So far, one plant aborted, and one is making the fruit. It is too early to tell how many will come out of this, but if it is a good germination, we should get about 50 to 100+ seedlings.
I am very disappointed you didn't film the harvesting of the pollen. Why stop right in the middle of things? Otherwise the video was so interesting, just can't understand the rushed ending.
The discipline is referred to as botany. Yes, but in the case of Amorphophallus the two stages are distinct. Either there is an inflorescence or there is a leaf, while in most plants both structures are present at the same time

This is by far the best video I have seen on this plant so far, the female receptors look incredible
This was incredibly interesting! What an amazing flower.
Haha, just also want to add Jason is quite handsome!
Better than anything imagined by science-fiction.
P.S Am I the only one jealous of that greenhouse?
No you are not. I would kill to have a greenhouse even half as spectacular as theirs. So many amazing plants!
@@sarrakitty me when im covering up the murder site's smell with a corpseflower/Amorphophallus
Nice to explain the terms and still referring to it as a flower…
You guys are great. Please make a video when the fruits start to ripen.
Yesterday we visited the Huntington Botanical Gardens to view two or their blooming corpse flowers. Thrilling!
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful experience.
Hi, just found this video, what a beautiful plant, amazing,well grown Sir's ,thank you
The most interesting video I have seen on TH-cam. Thank you for sharing. You didn't show us how you obtain the yellow powder.
The small yellow pollen sacs excrete strings of yellow pollen on day two. I can post photos on our social media pages to show that stage. Thanks!
This is pure gold, keep sharing these videos with us. You guys diserve more viewers... awesome father & son job!
Fabulous video. Thank you!
Fantastic and very informative video! Great job 👍🏼
Great video fun to watch! Thank you!
Fascinating! ❤️

Fascinating! Thank you.

You guys are going to sell the seeds right? 😁

Wow
Que maravilla de flor, la naturaleza es increíble. Gracias amigo por este video tan interesante e instructivo . Felicidades y gracias ! 👏👏👍👍
AMAZING!!!
I have one, it’s about 5, tall in my kitchen just leaves for now
Hey i got an idea why not using flies or beatles to pollinate just dust them with the pollen an throw them in.
How do you store the pollen?
So Jason did they take the pollen and is there seed ripening?
jay Spoolstra yes it is very ripe as of now and we are going to plant them soon!
So, these can be cross-pollinated with the Amorphophallus atroviridis to help with genetic diversity?
That‘s a hybrid cross and would result in genetic diversity but wouldn‘t have any value for conservation of the species
Is there a reason why youre pollinating it? Will it not flower again if you dont?
What kind of pollen did you put in it?
That beetle!
Damn this guy is jacked 💪
Where can you buy this plant at?

Como eu gostaria de ver essa flor de perto!!!
lumalaki pla ng ganyan kalaki meron kc ako ganyan din titan arum mga dalawang dangkal p lng ang laki
I want one, I will make room for it 😁
Very cool. I did this last year with a common A. paeonifolius. Hope one day to have a titan flower.
good❤🌹🌹🌹💐💐🥀🇰🇭

Otherwise the video was so interesting, just can't understand the rushed ending.
He should gave that beetle a dusting of pollen before it disappeared back in
But where do you take the pollen?
Idea for next time: Time lapse
Such a beautiful flower! I recently got a chance to see it in Toronto if you wanna check my channel to see! Sad to know that they're endangered :(
Had a small corpse flower bloom today in my house and I was absolutely stunned as to how original the rotting smell was. We'd to remove it right away.
It’s 2023 now omg
2023 says hi haha
I'm no vegetologist, but aren't MOST plants USUALLY in a vegetative state?
The discipline is referred to as botany. Yes, but in the case of Amorphophallus the two stages are distinct. Either there is an inflorescence or there is a leaf, while in most plants both structures are present at the same time
@@jhndr0nia this is great info. I do also hope you realize that my comment was a joke. I mean. 'vegetologist' xD

What soil you use to?
