Foul Flower

My Stapelia plant was relegated to the greenhouse a few years ago.
In spite of being somewhat neglected it continues to thrive and flower.

The reason for moving it outside?
The flower attempts to imitate rotting flesh both in colouring and scent.

    It may stink but it is very beautiful. Donate a cutting to your favourite MP.

    Adrian: It is indeed beautiful, even more so when seen 'live'. Too good to waste on a 'What can I get away with charging to the public purse?' MP.
