From the U.S. Botanic Garden:
“Announcing our second corpse flower (Amorphophallus titanum) bloom of 2024. This six-year-old plant blooming for the first time is a result from our hand-pollination using two of our blooms in 2017. Currently standing at 6’9”, we estimate it might open in peak bloom May 8.”
Oof. Thanks to G. for sending from the 130 block of Florida Avenue, NE: “They put in the bricks, and then took out the bricks and are now putting in the curbs. This photo (below) was taken a couple weeks ago pointing in that direction.” Read More

Bammy’s PR has confirmed that they are indeed open.
