A corpse flower bloom is coming soon!
Witness the rare corpse flower bloom at the Conservatory of Flowers, one of nature’s most rare and unforgettable events! ‘Chanel’ the corpse flower, also known as Titan Arum (Amorphophallus titanum) is the largest unbranched inflorescence (many tiny flowers acting as one) in the plant kingdom and only blooms once every 3-5 years for just 2 days.
While we wait for Chanel to bloom any day now, come visit the West Gallery of the Conservatory of Flowers, open 10am-4:30pm, last ticket sold at 4pm, Thursday through Tuesday.
General admission to the Conservatory of Flowers is required. Gardens Members, San Francisco Residents, Veterans, and Museums for All participants visit for free during the day!
