Perry’s Sister/Brother (Ted) is Opening! Posted on May 7th, 2007 by Brian O'Brien

The world of Titan Arum aficionados is currently experiencing a unique event – three plants flowering at approximately the same time across the U.S. – in California, Minnesota, and Connecticut. Ted the Titan at the University of California, Davis, started opening today. For a preview of what we will soon see with Perry, see live streaming video at this link.

See the Titan Arum webcams for a live look at Perry. Three cameras are linked (distant, top-down, and close-up). The close-up camera will be moved occasionally so as to provide different views. The images are renewed at five-minute intervals.

See Gustavus campus Channel 7 for live streaming video of Perry and his admirers.
