What I knew before watching this video: Rafflesia is a plant with interesting big flowers.<br>What I know after watching this video: Rafflesia is a freaking lovecraftian horror of plant world.

the fact that this flower was named after Sir Stamford Raffles, the leader of the expedition and the founder of the British colony of Singapore - is quite ironic and funny.

I did a report on the flower in the 4th grade(well over 15 years ago) I had forgotten the name since then, but still thought about how it astonished me. Yesterday, I thought of it again and now I’m stumbling across this video. Thank you.

What a great video! I would like to add that an Indonesian botanist became the first person to successfully cultivated Rafflesia Padma outside their natural habitat using grafting method. She successfully grow 6-7 flowers using the grafting method.
