The Titan arum is one of the worldʼs largest, rarest and on-thebrink of extinction, blooming plants. In the wild, they grow only in the tropical rain forests of Sumatra. Even there, they have always been uncommon. Now, 70 percent of their habitat has been destroyed. On the threatened species list, many committed conservationists, like Leonard, are racing to save it from extinction.
