Corpse flower at Kansas college blooming
WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – The corpse flower at Winfield’s Southwestern College is blooming.
The college thought the flower would open last week, but forecasting the blooms in not an exact science.
The bloom date was based off when it last happened.
“We thought this one would behave also. It didn’t. It’s late. Just like a baby, it is late. So, this is our baby,” Bryon Rinke, greenhouse manager, said.
The greenhouse on the campus will be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
For those who aren’t able to travel to Winfield, a livestream of the event is on the Southwestern College YouTube page
