Scarlet, the Corpse Flower (Amorphophallus titanum) has a bloom growing rapidly in the Conservatory of Flowers.
Let the countdown begin--we expect Scarlet to bloom within the next 5 to 7 days, the bloom will be incredibly brief, typically lasting two days. Scarlet last bloomed in July 2023, nearly 3 years ago. Relive the incredible bloom here.

All visitors should reserve timed entry tickets online in advance and special After-Hours tickets will be required for after-hours entry.
