probably germinating and implanting the Rafflesia into
its host.
as i understand, the plant itself consists of a few
strands of tissue that is attached or embedded into
the host (and this is underground). i think i read
that Rafflesia has no leaves, stems or roots. now,
how's that for a weird plant?
