A SURPRISE find by a local here most likely had created a
historical moment in the annals of world botany. A farmer who declines to be
identified accidently came upon a local species of the famous rafflesia, which
is known here as “pakma” while travelling in a jungle here.
The find,
which occurred a few days ago, was significant in that the flower had a
circumference of 98 cm and had a weight of 8.1 kg, which is markedly superior
to the normal 91-cm circumference and 7 kg weight of the usual rafflesia -- BORNEO DIGEST
