Once a year our pretty but pungent voodoo lilies stink up the entrance of the Sun Garden. In this video, Ms. Heather tells us more about why this flower lets off such an awful smell. Thank you @qctimes!
The smell of rotting flesh emitted by the voodoo lily attracts flies for pollination. qctimes.com/news/local/ooooh…
