Meet Odora, the corpse flower ready to raise a stink at The Huntington

A botanical celebrity is getting ready for its close-up, and you only have days to take in its smelly appeal.

The newly-christened Odora, one of 43 resident corpse flowers at The Huntington Library, Art Gallery, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, was moved to the conservatory on July 10 for the public to view, alongside another specimen — Stankasaurus — in its fruiting stage.

This is the first time both flowering and fruiting stages of the plant are on display.
