Clathrus ruber
While walking in the woods this afternoon, I came across this red, tubular plant growing on some decaying wood. Upon further investigation, I found that inside was a nice green mucous with lots of flies inside. Then, the smell hit me. It was definitely the most foul smelling plant I've ever encountered. Interestingly enough, according to Wikipedia, its actually an invasive species brought over from Europe. There's always something cool in the woods.
