Recent bloomer. Easy to miss the flower on this one. No scent detected except wet bark.

I see what you mean about it being easy to miss. I don't know anything about these. Is it a species that is usually scented?,anyway, it looks like a very nice specimen plant!Thanks for posting & broadening my 'knowledge'

Thanks for looking. I dont believe its known for producing scent. Im almost positive i detected a scent from my Zoo. serpentinum when it was last in bloom.

Watch out! It's coming right for you and it looks HUNGRY!

Ok, neat plant. I do have a bit of a soft spot for the unusual, but this one seriously looks like it wants to eat me!

I don't know much about these, I love the shape of the foliage. That flower is a freaky little fellow.
