Well, the plant it self is not that monstrous, its the inflorence. Oncidium spacelatum. This one was found on the ground in the Mayan city of Tikal in 1991, while I was visiting the site. Had obviously fallen from a tree.

The plant is rather small, it is the infloresence that is monstrous. If it is the customs etc. you are asking about, well, in 1991 no-one cared about some extra plants etc in the hand-luggage
