Night at the Conservatory: Meet the Corpse Flower

Join us for a special after-hours program to see, smell and learn about Scarlet the Corpse Flower! The infamously pungent, towering Titan Arum (Amorphophallus titanum) is now blooming at the Conservatory. Meet one of our botanical experts who can answer questions and share fascinating facts about this rare bloom. The bloom will only last approximately 48 hours, so don't wait to see it! Enjoy all five Conservatory galleries, included in admission, filled with thousands of tropical plants. Special programs require a ticket for all to attend. GGGP members attend for FREE*.

Date and time of event depends on the bloom. For confirmation on bloom date, check our social media on Instagram, Facebook, sign up for our newsletter, or watch the live stream.

Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable

*Note: During normal operating hours, admission is free to SF residents with proof of residency. Because of its popularity, during peak daytime attendance, guests should anticipate a wait of approximately 30-60 minutes to see the flower.  Join today or on site and get admission for free to this special event!
