Aside from the morbid humor... is this a plant that blooms once every 30+
years or something similar....also blooms only at night for only a few
hours? I believe my parents have seen one of these bloom in Mt. Vernon, Ohio
back in the late 60's or early 70's. I will have to check with them. If
so, I will find out if the plant is still there and if I can get seeds of a
tuber for you.

The corpse plant is indeed truly a rare plant i believe it comes from
Sumatra? as far as i know a corpse plant has only bloomed 10 times in North
America this century so that would make the seeds very rare indeed.
