2 stages of corpse flower life cycle: the bloom is the reproductive stage. It smells like death. Note the gas mask sitting at the guy's feet. He's attaching temperature sensors, because the plant heats itself to further spread and activate its odor. The pod at the bottom left of the bloom is the dormant stage. It can blossom into either the light-gathering stage or the reproductive bloom, depending on how much energy it has stored. The brown thing at the left of the base of the plant is another plant in the dormant stage of its life cycle.

We went, along with a great many other people, to check out the notorious "corpse flower" (Amorphophallus titanum) at the Conservatory of Flowers. This is reputed to be both the largest and smelliest bloom in flowerdom. By the time we go there, less than 24 hours after it finally opened (which it does only once every two years), the smell wasn't really that bad -- kind of like a really expensive French cheese. Or maybe that was from the crowd of spectators.
