It’s Not an Alien Plant
This odd-looking cactus with that weird looking flower might look like something an astronaut would encounter on Mars, and that pistil is so creepy as if it has the power to drain the blood or soul out of someone. But this plant can’t do any of that. It’s actually known as a Stapelia and it is indigenous to South Africa. But don’t go smelling it because it stinks like rotting flesh to attract Carrion flies that help pollinate them.
