The flower of my stapelia

Hola hive, buenas tardes!

Como he contado en varias ocasiones, en casa tenemos variedad de plantas, justamente he intentado en varias ocasiones mostrarles la flor de una que se encuentra en el porche de mi casa. Sin embargo, cuando le he intentado tomar foto al capullo (bien grande por cierto), este nunca llega a abrir y mostrar su flor.

Ha ocurrido dos veces, tomo las fotos al capullo y el día en el que esperamos que abra, nos damos cuenta que murió.. Sin embargo, hace unos días, nos dimos cuenta de que el capullo estaba inmenso,y que podría abrir en esta ocasión, pero, en el descuido aquí si olvidé tomarle una foto porsi llegaba a abrir!

Cual sería nuestra sorpresa que, en una tarde cuando nos acercamos, esta pequeña Stapelia nos mostró la majestuosidad de su flor. Porque me parece que es preciosa, grande y muy elegante. Obviamente, para este momento no dejé escapar la oportunidad de tomarle una foto, por aquí se las dejo

Hello hive, good afternoon!
As I have told you on several occasions, we have a variety of plants at home, and I have tried on several occasions to show you the flower of one that is on the porch of my house. However, when I have tried to take a picture of the bud (very large by the way), it never opens and shows its flower.
It has happened twice, I take pictures of the bud and the day we expect it to open, we realize it died.... However, a few days ago, we realized that the bud was huge, and that it could open this time, but, in the carelessness here if I forgot to take a picture in case it would open!
To our surprise, one afternoon when we approached it, this little Stapelia showed us the majesty of its flower. Because I think it is beautiful, big and very elegant. Obviously, for this moment I did not miss the opportunity to take a picture of it, here they are

But how does it smell? These are not cacti, they are stapelia and they pollinate their flowers by smelling like a dead animal, which attracts flies
