Believe it or not, at one time this plant was the official borough
plant of the Bronx, NYC. It was changed only recently. It happened due
to its exhibit at the Bronx Botanical Gardens in the 1890s I seem to
recall. Many people were recently alarmed by the past legislators'
choice, as it comes from Indonesia! The Bronx has the same Dutch
inspired flag as Albany County except it has a wreath also on it. We
have to have a corpse flower too?
