In Vancouver, where the real estate market often dominates conversations, I like capturing nooks and crannies of our neighbourhood. Out and about this morning, I saw what is – to me, at least – a new twist on the traditional SOLD sign.

Some shots of one of the biggest (and, at times, smelliest) flowers in the world. See more on Vancouver’s Corpse Flower in my post at ...

@ParkBoard @bloedel_conservatory @vandusengarden
Vancouver’s very own Corpse Flower, aka Titan Arum. It’s not only the largest flower on this planet; when it first blooms, it’s also the smelliest.
At six years, this plant is young for its first bloom. Inside the petal, the dark red of the self-heating plant draws pollinators such as carrion beetles and flesh flies that feed on dead animals - or, at least that’s what it does in its native Sumatra! No signs of them today at the Bloedel Conservatory!
There was no discernible smell this afternoon, on day two of its anticipated 48 or so hours of bloom time. This is the first time a corpse flower has bloomed in Canada, and it’s expected to be some years before this massive plant blossoms again.
