Skunk Cabbage
Websites presented in alphabetical order Skunk Cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus) This illustrated essay describes Symplocarpus foetidus in detail and shows why people find it so interesting, even though "skunk cabbage stinks and has no beautiful blossoms." Information includes the plant's ability to regulate its own temperature, its scent of decomposing flesh as a means of attracting insects, and its growth cycle.
