Celebrating the 50 th anniversary of NTBG WASHINGTON, D.C. — The blooming of that much-hyped “corpse flower” in Washington drew droves of visitors to the Botanical Garden in-part because of what it was supposed to smell like. A line wrapped around the outside of the building on Monday where Congress approved $5,000 to relocate the plants to the greenhouse and soon the Botanic Garden was on its feet again. Over the years other expeditions, such as Commodore Matthew Perry’s trip to Japan in 1852 brought more plants to Washington DC. Tourists look at the blooming titan arum plant on July 22, 2013 at the US Botanic Garden in Washington, DC. The plant, also known as the corpse flower or stinky plant, is blooming and may remain in bloom for 24 to 48 hours, and then it will collapse quickly. .
