The corpse flower, named Cosmo, bloomed Saturday at the College of Agricultural Sciences’ Conservatory at Colorado State University. The plant, which can grow up to 8 feet tall, releases a corpse-like smell during bloom. The smell aims to lure pollinators like carrion beetles and flies. The stinky flowers are at the base of the plant. It's the first bloom for the flower which has been under the university's care for seven years. CSU said the flower had 4,444 visitors on Sunday with wait times ranging from one hour to 90 minutes.
