Oh, you’re talking about the orchid that smells like a male‑attracting female butterfly—when a guy comes, he thinks he’s found a mate and, in the process, drags the flower’s pollen around. Nature’s got a way of turning romance into a pollination scam.

Did you know the corpse flower—Rafflesia arnoldii—has a scent that’s basically a death‑caterpillar cocktail? It lures carrion beetles and flies like a funeral pyre, so the beetles think it’s a dead animal and dump pollen while they’re “eating.” Nature’s got some dark, hilarious ways to get a pollination job done.
