Some flowers smell so good that they can easily make you dizzy.

But at the same time they can be attractive in appearance. After looking at their photos, many gardeners will want to place them on their windowsill.

Amorphophallus

A huge flower, the tuber of which can reach 30 cm in diameter. The plant looks impressive, but the aroma can knock an unprepared person off their feet.

The flower resembles a starfish, looks decorative and harmless. But its smell is reminiscent of rotten meat or fish.

The stench of the succulent will knock even an adult and healthy person off their feet, not to mention children or allergy sufferers.

Bulbophyllum

Not all orchids are harmless. Bulbophyllum has an interesting shape, but an unpleasant smell of rotting fruit.

Aichryson

The plant is popularly called the "tree of love". Such a romantic name and harmless appearance make it popular among flower growers.

The peculiarity of Aichryson is that the flower will not stink until it is touched. But as soon as the leaves are touched, the foul-smelling juice will take a long time to wash off.
