Corpse Flower Blooms

And finally tonight... thousands flock to Springfield, Missouri over the weekend to see a different kind of flower bloom.Audrey, the stinky tropical corpse plant from the island of Sumatra, attracted about 7,000 people this past weekend.Named after the voracious plant in the musical, "Little Shop of Horrors," Audrey blooms every six to ten years, and puts out a smell like rotting flesh.Audrey's showy bloom only lasted about 36 hours... after which she entered a dormant stage.
