Apparently the Germans (from Bonn) can boast about the largest Amorphophallus: 3 meters high in 2003 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amorphophallus_titanum#Descrip...).

I wonder if some botanical gardens also think about getting some carrion-eating flies and beetles (which are normally attracted to the flower and pollinate it) to make the experience more complete?

TIL! Initially I thought about the sprouting corpses in Grim Fandango, but I'll make it a stop for my next visit to the botanical garden in munich: https://www.botmuc.de/en/garden/gh_victoria_house.html

There at least the giant lily needs to be pollinated by hand as they are lacking the specialized beetles https://www.botmuc.de/en/audio_tour/202.html so I'd assume some gardens do think about these matters.
