When this blooms, it’s big and beautiful. It could be three or four feet tall, the same width.

It’s rare. It only blooms every 7 years or so, and this is the first one to ever bloom in Toronto

But it smells like death. Rotting meat, vomit, and garbage’s garbage, etc. You get the point.

It should be blooming in a few days if you’re interested in checking it out.

However when asked on Instagram, 75% said no way they’d go see it.
