Lah... I thought it is only available in Indo. In fact,in England,they keep it one in England.

The titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum) has the largest unbranched inflorescence in the world. The largest single flower is borne by the Rafflesia arnoldii; the largest branched inflorescence in the plant kingdom belongs to the Talipot palm (Corypha umbraculifera). Due to its fragrance, which is reminiscent of the smell of a decomposing mammal[1], the titan arum is also known as the "Corpse flower" or "Corpse plant" (in Indonesian, "bunga bangkai" – bunga means flower, while bangkai means corpse or cadaver; for the same reason, the same title is also attributed to Rafflesia which, like the titan arum, also grows in the rainforests of Sumatra).

I smelt it once when I was in Padang ( had a field trip from college for 1 week ). Gosh...smells sooo bad.

Taider... Maria's chihuahua dog was put in here for temporarily.
Goshh... the 1st time he scared me to death. He 's so energetic. Ha ha ha.

When I was bending,he  licked my back.He licks my hands ( cos he's so tiny).He jumps and lifts up his 2 legs. Ha ha ha.

Poor Putty,he still can't get along with the new doggie.He hides himself in our bedroom or in the closet upstairs.

 

Putty used to sit in this couch. Now Taider has his spot.
