¿Sabe cuál es la flor mas grande del mundo?
25 de Agosto, 2006 | Categoría(s): Curiosidades de Plantas
La rafflesia arnoldi pesa 7 kg. y sólo crece en Sumatra, Malasia y Borneo. Sus pétalos crecen hasta medio metro de largo y 2,5 cm. de grosor, lo que da el porte de un metro de longitud. Se encuentra entre las plantas tropicales más raras conocidas por el hombre. No tiene tallo, hojas ni raíces, creciendo sólo como parásito de otra planta, llamada Tetrastigma.
Tienen un enfermizo color rojo sangre y huelen a carne descompuesta. Pueden emitir calor, imitando tal vez a un animal recién muerto para atraer a las moscas carroñeras que la polinizan.
Fue descubierta en una expedición por Thomas Stamford Raffles, fundador de la colonia británica de Singapur, y por Joseph Arnold, quien murió de malaria en la expedición.
