A 20-Pound Flower
Roses are red, violets are blue, and the Rafflesia is a crimson-colored monstrosity compared to those two plants.
The world’s largest flower, the Rafflesia, doesn’t have leaves, roots, or a stem, but does boast enormous “petal-like lobes” and a spiky center.
The giant plant can weigh more than 20 pounds and emits a pungent odor that smells like rotting meat or poop.
