Meet Audrey, the Corpse Flower!
A VERY LARGE Millipede!
It's not a leaf... it's not a scorpion... it's a really weird bug!*

* A Giant Prickly Stick, to be precise.
** Not a real Giant Caterpillar. Unless, of course, you happen to be a tiny Yntch Worm.

Fab pictures!
Does the corpse plant ever bloom?

replied:
We had one (“Lois”) bloom last year. The horticulturalist at HMNS says this one will probably not bloom for several years yet (I don’t remember if it was 3, or 7 years.)
Thanks for stopping by, and Happy WW!

The millipede was pretty gross. But that Prickly Pear Stick was really sorta interesting. And, of course, I am a real fan of the Yntch Worm!
Thanks for stopping by, and Happy WW!

Great shots! But the millipede just creeps me out. You are so brave to hold it in your palm.

Yucky! Not a bug fan at all. The Audrey plant looks interesting though.
