"I'm very excited. The corpse flower, in case you don't know, is nature's single-most revolting plant. When one of these three-foot-tall beauties opens up, it gives off the scent of rotting flesh. The University of Connecticut has managed to cultivate one, the first example in the northeast in 60 years, and any day now it's due to open up."
