A plant with semen smelling flower ! :)


Around this time - from October to December a creeper plant in our place blossoms and it smells like semen. But people are just put up with it and don't openly discuss about it. I have been searching for this plant for quite sometime. This time I caught it. It was right on top of our Temple peepal tree. It is a creeper plant going heights till the top .. So the smell spreads a kilometer away!. Yet I don't know local name or Botanical name. If I find I will update this.If any of you know please put it as a comment.

While searching over the net I saw many plants have this sort of smell. Somebody wrote that Bradford pears have this smell when in bloom. No idea about that. There was no picture of any plant so I thought it would help if I put it up. Surprisingly its flowers looked like sperm ! :)
