Corpse Flowers are the biggest flowers in the world, and blooms for one day every four years. Tonight I saw one. (slrpnk.net)

I had to wait in line 2 hrs to get into the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco, but we saw it. The flower is named after its odor, which resembles rotting meat to entice scavenger insects into pollinating it. It smells truly foul. 8/10 experience, highly recommend.

Also, how do i make Alt text for an image post?
