Study of an alien on Earth: Rhizanthes lowii (Rafflesiaceae; local name: Ulur-ulur). Found this on an online store (from Kalimantan) and the flower bud (despite people call it “the fruit”) was sold in dry state as folk medicine. I decided to buy it to analyze it… and taste it (??) #rhizanthes #ulurulur (at Jakarta, Indonesia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCFOpOrBsdQ/?igshid=e6o9jvivi6zh
