Tried to get a decent pic of the inside but between the lighting and my camera's limitations this is the best I could do. If anyone would like me to, I'll try to get a better pic later.

Paul, other species from this genera do attact flies for pollenation!!!!! But with that snail at your friends home, I don't think you'll be attracting much more than flies :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

My pleasure :)

This is a plant that I've given lots of portions of to friends...and yet it's still at least as big as the day I bought it ;)

If a piece breaks off, you just stick it in the dirt and it grows into more! Gotta love it...the plant that keeps on giving :D

Intriguingly bizarre .. so much so you can't stop looking at it ... :shock:

What an interesting flower on that! I love it.

What show? Where? I don't get around much lately.:bua:

Sandy, a few of us are going to meet at the Tampa Orchid Society show at USF Botanical Gardens on Halloween :dance13:

You are most welcome to join us if you can :cheer:

:hello

That looks like a member of the stapeliad family to me and I thought they were all stinkers. I have a few of them and they all pong.
