This flower from the "Talipot" palm (Corypha umbraculifera), (one of the largest palms in the world) blooms after 70 years and it just did at the Botanic Garden in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. What makes the event special is the size, the beauty of the flower and that after the flower blooms, the palm dies.

Thought I would share this marvel with you!

PEACE OUT!
