The rare Corpse Flower, or Titan Arum, a native of Sumatra, is in bloom today at UConn after a hiatus of several years. The Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Greenhouses are open until 4 p.m. for the public to see – and smell – the giant flower. There is no charge for admission. Visitors are encouraged to park in the North Parking Garage, and access the greenhouses, located behind the Torrey Life Sciences Building, from Auditorium Road. See Campus Map.
