Spring is the time of flowering, whatever that flower may be.
Amorphophallus konjac, popularly known as “corpse flower”, bloomed in the LSC greenhouse last week. For the first few days, the flower fully justified its name, so it spent time on the balcony, but now the aroma is already very subdued, so this infrequently blooming exotic flower can be seen individually in the Western building of LSC, on the 4th floor, near laboratory V433.
